Removal of namespace in xslt - Urgent pls

Question

All,
version: 11.1.1.3.
My incoming xml doc comes like this (sample one) into BPEL with namespace ns1
+*<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>*+
+*<ns1:OrderRequestHeader>*+
+*<ns1:ShipTo>*+
+*<ns1:Name xml:lang="en-US">P1- Atlanta</ns1:Name>*+
+*</ns1:ShipTo>*+
+*</ns1:OrderRequestHeader>*+
To remove such namespace I used the template as below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="*">
<!-- remove element prefix (if any) -->
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<!-- process attributes -->
<xsl:for-each select="@*">
<!-- remove attribute prefix (if any) -->
<xsl:attribute name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This template(googled it) remove all the namespace from element and also the attribute (*<ns1:Name xml:lang="en-US">P1- Atlanta</ns1:Name>*) i.e xml got removed from xml:lang. But I dont want to remove the namespace from attributes. Hence I removed the section below the commented line <!-- remove attribute prefix (if any) -->. This time the output just showed only the element without the attribute like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<ns1:OrderRequestHeader>
<ns1:ShipTo>P1- Atlanta</ns1:Name>
</ns1:ShipTo>
</ns1:OrderRequestHeader>
But I want the output to be with attribute with xml namespace. How do I achieve that? I tried many combination in the template, but couldnt get thru. Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sen
