When I'm serializing my objects to XML, .NET seems to put the following

this information?

Withoug being sure, my guess is that the XML will take some standard
references from W3 just like being in HTML in that code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dt d">

Just an idea.

I tried inheriting XMLSerializer and overriding the "Serialize"
procedure... but it doesn't seem to execute. Do you if there is anything
special to do when overriding XMLserializer?

Thanks!
