Two thoughts:
1. The simplest way may be perhaps using a default namespace declaration:
<a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" href=...."> ...
I.e. you have to modify your XSL stylesheets accordingly.
Now you have all your HTML elements within the HTML namespace and the
CSS isn't affected.
2. Regarding your given example: I think this should be
<html:a href="http://www.w3.org/"
xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">online</html:a>
i.e. the href attribute is *not* prefixed. I belongs to the a element
of the HTML namespace and that's it.
Comments?
Cheers, Oliver
