The recently released xmlns() scheme draft <http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-xmlns/> makes it even clearer that namespace bindings from the XML document in which the XPointer appears do not apply to the XPointerr. This draft explicitly states: The XPointer Framework on which this specification is based dictates that the initial namespace binding context prior to evaluation of the first pointer part consists of a single entry: the xml prefix bound to the URI http:/www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace. -- +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | Elliotte Rusty Harold | elharo@metalab.unc.edu | Writer/Programmer | +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | XML in a Nutshell, 2nd Edition (O'Reilly, 2002) | | http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/xian2/ | | http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN%3D0596002920/cafeaulaitA/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Read Cafe au Lait for Java News: http://www.cafeaulait.org/ | | Read Cafe con Leche for XML News: http://www.cafeconleche.org/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+
