hi,

i think that you are right - what about this:

    /**
     * Return namespace that corresponds to given prefix
     * If there is no prefix bound to this namespace return null if
     * generatePrefix is false otherwise return null.
     */
    public String getPrefix (String namespace, boolean generatePrefix);

it would deal with case when namespace prefix needs to be generated.

i have added it to XmlSerializer.java - is it what you had in mind?

thanks,
