Hi,

I'm having some issues searching documents within a default namespace.

if my document looks like

<node1 xmlns="http://foo.bar.com"; >
   <bar>content</bar>
</node1>

I'd assume that I would do service.setNamespace( "",
"xmlns="http://foo.bar.com"; )

or even

service.setNamespace( null, "xmlns="http://foo.bar.com"; )

neither of these work.
However if I add a prefix to my document like:

<foo:node1 xmlns:foo="http://foo.bar.com"; >
   <foo:bar>content</foo:bar>
</foo:node1>

and do service.setNamespace( "foo", "xmlns="http://foo.bar.com"; )

my query works fine. Unfortunately this isn't a solution for me.


You are right and service.setNamespace( "", "...") does not work, but you don't have to change your document to perform a query - namespace prefix in the document and namespace prefix in the query does not have to match. Just use any non-empty prefix in your query (like 'foo'), and it will work (see my other email with simple example).
