Do we need to have INTERNET connection when we reference...

["Vanam, Ravindar" <Ravindar.Vanam@nordstrom.com>]

Hi,

Just wondering whether we need INTERNET connection when we reference the name spaces like 

xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";

in any of the XSL or XSD documents?

I tried removing the LAN connection and tried with a VB executable to transform XML to XML document with XSL. It worked!!!!

Can I say that we just need to have the above string in the document? or do we really need internet connection?

Thanks,
Ravi
