xmlns="" automatically generated

[Zhenya Sigal via .NET 247]

I have the following code:
XmlElement parent= m_xmlDoc.CreateElement("parent", "http://tempuri.org/myns");
parent.InnerXml = "<child1>text</child1><child2>text</child2>";

"http://tempuri.org/myns" is declared as the default namespace for this xml file.

When I set InnerXml above, each <child> node gets the following extra attribute: xmlns="". I'd like child nodes to inherit the default namespace instead of the empty namespace. How can I do it?

thanks,
Zhenya

Use
parent.InnerXml = "<child1
xmlns='http://tempuri.org/myns'>text</child1><child2>text</child2>";
