I misunderstood as all descendants were rendered ;-)
XPath serialization is used to serialize an element pointed
"#id-name" (in 4.3.3 the third paragraph.) So, the following
dsig:Reference element digests only '<purchase xmlns=""></purchase>'.
Is this right?
<SignedPurchase>
<purchase id="ORDER1">
<item>ThinkPad</item>
<price>195.00$</price>
</purchase>
<dsig:Signature xmlns:dsig="...">
....
<dsig:Reference URI="#ORDER1">
<dsig:DigestMethod ..../>
<dsig:DigestValue>...</dsig:DigestValue>
</dsig:Reference>
...
</dsig:Signature>
</purchase>
