Problem with xsql:query

Question

Hi,
I'm having a problem with the following simple XSQL document:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsql:query connection="xsqltest" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
SELECT concat(concat(forename, ' '), surname) AS Name
, d.name AS Department
FROM emp, dept d
WHERE emp.dept_no = d.id
ORDER BY surname
</xsql:query>When I transform this using the command line xsql, it produces the following (as expected):
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<Name>Cindy Delight</Name>
<Department>Accounting</Department>
</ROW>
<ROW num="2">
<Name>Adrian Rue</Name>
<Department>Product Development</Department>
</ROW>
<ROW num="3">
<Name>Dwight Dweeb</Name>
<Department>Accounting</Department>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>However, when I access the same page through my browser, the output is:
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<xsql:query>
SELECT concat(concat(forename, ' '), surname) AS Name
, d.name AS Department
FROM emp, dept d
WHERE emp.dept_no = d.id
ORDER BY surname
</xsql:query>(this is the same as the input document, except the namespace declaration has been stripped out, making the XML invalid).
I've tried including other xsql tags in the same document (e.g. xsql:include-xsql), these seem to work fine. Also, if I change the connect details, XSQL fails as expected, so it would appear xsql is being invoked by Tomcat (.xsql is mapped to the servlet), and XSQL successfully connecting to the database.
My setup is slightly unusual: I'm trying to use XSQL 1.0.4.1 with MySQL 3.23.32 using the mm.mysql 2.0.4 JDBC drivers. This is running on Tomcat 3.2.1 with JDK 1.3 (OJVM 1.2.330). But, since it works with the command line xsql, I'm at a loss as to why it's misbehaving through the servlet engine only... any ideas?

Hmm,
Even more confusing - the same .xsql document works fine with WebToGo - so I guess this is a Tomcat problem, somehow... Just can't understand why xsql:include-xsql works and xsql:query doesn't.
