[xml] xmlCopyNode that doesn't copy a namespace?

["Theodore H. Smith" <delete elfdata com>]

Hi people,

I still haven't got an answer on my question to the XPath problem I  
was having. In the meantime I've written my own Xpath query function,  
which is actually more faster and simple to use than the standard  
XPath. I'd still like an answer on the XPath problem I posted here,  
though. Because I'd like to use the standard tools whereever possible  
instead of having to write my own alternatives.

So, I got this problem with xmlCopyNode, it's putting a namespace  
into the XML, when I don't actually want one there.

before I had this:

<metadata>
    <schema>ADL SCORM</schema>
    <schemaversion>CAM 1.3</schemaversion>
</metadata>

then I end up with this:

<metadata xmlns="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imscp_v1p1";>
    <schema>ADL SCORM</schema>
    <schemaversion>CAM 1.3</schemaversion>
</metadata>

Is there some way to disable this behaviour?
