Redefining namespaces

Question

Hi there,
we have a request from a client to redefine the namespace of some elements inside the xml.
For example, the following XML:
<test xmlns="http://test">
<field1/>
<field2/>
<field2/>
</test>
must be sent like:
<test xmlns="http://test">
<field1/>
<field2 xmlns="http://test"/>
<field2 xmlns="http://test"/>
</test>
Is there any way to accomplish this using mapping (java or xslt) or some of the default modules? I'm using Soap receiver adapter.
PS: I've checked out that if I used different prefixes, like:
<test xmlns="http://test">
<field1/>
<ns0:field2 xmlns:ns0="http://test"/>
<ns0:field2 xmlns:ns0="http://test"/>
</test>
then it would be easy, using <xsl:copy-of> function in XSLT mapping. But the client also demands that the output message must have no prefixes (which, btw, I accomplished using XML Anonymizer Module). :/
Thanks in advance,
Henrique.

Hi Henrique,
<i>the .XSD file is created by the customer and I can't change it.</i> - so you mean to say your target struc is give by client and that does not have ns for inner fields in it - correct or not....... but id this is the case why you have said below:
<i>must be sent like:
<test xmlns="http://test">
<field1/>
<field2 xmlns="http://test"/>
<field2 xmlns="http://test"/>
</test></i>
i.e why you need ns for inner fields.
Could you please explain your req in more detail.
Thanks,
