Re: [XSLTalk] XPATH + Namespaces

Emanuil,

I have resolved the toplevel namespace with help from the following article

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;313372,

I used the code:

sNameSpaces = "xmlns:cm='http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CM/envelope'"
oDOM.setProperty "SelectionNamespaces", sNameSpaces

Then the following XPath works, (if I take the namespace out of the 
<AddressRequest> tag):

sRURef = 
oDOM.selectSingleNode("cm:GovTalkMessage/cm:Body/cm:AddressRequest/cm:Key[@Type='ruref']").text

The problem is that the <AddressRequest> tag also has a default namespace 
and is declared like so:

<AddressRequest xmlns:="http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/gateway/addressrequest">

How do I declare this namespace and then use XPath to access it:

Thanks

Paul
