[AspNetAnyQuestionIsOk] Parsing a RSS feed with RSS namespace

[Helge Thomas Hellerud]

Hello,

How do I parse a RSS feed with elements like <foo:bar ...> (like "<rdf:RDF
...>")? 
How should the XPath query be?

The feed:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 
  <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#";
xmlns="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/";
xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";
xmlns:taxo="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/taxonomy/";
xmlns:admin="http://webns.net/mvcb/";
xmlns:syn="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/";>

<item rdf:about="http://www.myUrl.com/";>
  <title>myTitle</title> 
  <link>http://www.someUrl.com/</link> 
  <description>myDescription</description> 
  <dc:date>myDate</dc:date> 
</item>
</rdf:RDF>

Here is my code. When myQuery = "/", I get all the content of the file. When
I try to select an item, I get 0 nodes returned. I think the problem is the
RDF namespace, but how do I fix it?

XPathDocument doc =  new XPathDocument("http://localhost/myFeed.xml";);
XPathNavigator nav = doc.CreateNavigator();
XPathNodeIterator items = nav.Select(myQuery);
                                        
while (items.MoveNext())
{
Console.WriteLine(items.Current.Value.ToString());
}

Thanks in advance.

Helge
