we find:
lookupPrefix introduced in DOM Level 3
Look up the prefix associated to the given namespace URI, starting
from this node. The default namespace declarations are ignored by this
method.
See Namespace Prefix Lookup for details on the algorithm used by
this method.
Parameters
namespaceURI of type DOMString
The namespace URI to look for.
Return Value
DOMString
Returns an associated namespace prefix if found or null if none is
found. If more than one prefix are associated to the namespace prefix,
the returned namespace prefix is implementation dependent.
I suspect, "If more than one prefix are associated to the namespace
prefix, the returned namespace prefix is implementation dependent."
should probably be "If more than one prefix are associated to the
namespace URI, the returned namespace prefix is implementation dependent."
