It doesn't know how to pick up the sub-node's namespace using namespace-uri()? <root xmlns="foo"> <sub1 xmlns="bar"> <sub2 /> </sub1> </root> XMLSearch(packet,"/root/sub1/sub2[namespace-uri()='bar']") I figured you'd probably already tried this, but I'd be a little surprised to see it not work. (Unless I'm confused about the question.)
