> However using DOM it is possible to create elements in the "" (separate from > null) namespace [1]. So an XPath implementation using a DOM, rather then a > raw XML file, will have to take this into account. No, I disagree, It's the DOM's problem if it doesn't follow the Namespace REC. Xpath has to treat "" as being the no-namespace case, even if there is a spurious difference if you access the tree via dom methods, this must be hidden at the Xpath level. (just as CDATA nodes and other stuff must be hidden).
