Vivian, it's not possible the set the namespace according to the W3C 
standard, except with createElementNS(). As Adam said, in PHP 4, there 
was the option set_namespace, which isn't ported to PHP5 (yet).

Maybe we should port that function as well, to allow some deeper level 
manipulation of the namespaces...

Currently, I don't have a solution to your problem, except porting 
setNamespace to PHP5...
