Creating an XML String with namespace in Java.Please see

I am creating an XML String with the

private String sTradeSizeXML ="<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>" +

"<xsl:stylesheet version=\"1.0\" xmlns:xsl=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform\">" +" " +

"xmlns:i=\"http://www.abc.com/common/interests:i\">" +

"<Note>" +

"<i:Level>100000</i:Level>"+

"<i:Size>20000</i:Size>"+

"</Note>"+

"</xsl:stylesheet>";

On execution,it gives me the error:

Fatal Error] :1:183: The prefix"i"for element"i:Level" is not bound.

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The prefix"i"for element"i:Level" is not bound.

But I am binding this to i: in the above string ?

So why is it still giving that error?
