Hi Tim, The FunctX Library contains the function functx:namespaces-in-use(), which lists all namespaces in use in a given XML tree (more info here: http://www.xqueryfunctions.com/xq/functx_namespaces-in-use.html). Alternately you could parse the XML generically using /child::element() or /child::node() and then use the function fn:namespace-uri() to determine the namespace URI for each element individually. -jb On Sat, May 28, 2011 at 9:35 PM, Tim Meagher <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Mike, > > I already have a relatively simple xquery module that reads XML > documents and recursively lays out the contents of a document with > HTML using a cascading style sheet by spitting out local element > names, attribute names, and the text associated with each; however, I > know the namespace associated with each element ahead of time and > therefore am using it to access each node and its sub-nodes.
