Re^2: XML::LibXML::Element appendChild/addChild not inheriting namespace?

Thank you for the reply. Yes, your method appears to work.

One thing is still bugging me though, in regards to $child->localname yielding foo:child, which doesn't seem to be XML 1.0 compliant, as a colon usually isn't allowed in the localname or prefix parts, as it's reserved as the separator, yet localname contains it in my original test case above.

Would this constitute a bug, or is this desired behavior somehow?

I think the problem is already in createElement which accepts `'foo:child'` without checking the prefix. I'm not sure whether it's a problem on the Perl or underlying C side, though.
