Summary: element defines multiple namespaces for same URI
Initial Comment:
I tried to use XPath expressions, but dom4j returns
prefix "" for uri "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";,
which seems correct but it hides prefix "xs" which
would need to be used in the XPath expression.
Perhaps element.getNamespaceURI(String) should
return a List.
Therefore, the XPath is not valid. I'm not sure
whether it is legal to define multiple prefixes
for the same URI, or overlaying the default
namespace with a more defined one as it is done in this
example.
<schema
targetNamespace="http://marshalltestservice.org/types2
"
xmlns:foo="http://marshalltestservice.org/types2";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-
instance"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
elementFormDefault="qualified">
<xs:include schemaLocation
= "IncludedDefs.xsd"/>
...
</schema>

ok I see: you use that method to construct your XPath at
runtime. I've tested your sample document with some
predefined XPath expressions which already contained the
prefix and so I didn't need that method.
You should indeed iterate over all the prefixes that belong
to some URI (which I think is allowed to have multiple
prefixes for the same URI). I'll add such a method as soon
as possible. If it's urgent: you could commit a patch to
speed things up, or you could lookup all prefixes yourself
(using the implementation of the
AbstractElement.getNamespaceForURI() method as inspiration.
Thanks

Given that I don't know the xml document in advance, but
want to get a list of all <include> elements that belong to the
namespace "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";.
I first get the prefix
for "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; from the root
element. Then I build up my XPath expression with that prefix.
String xpath = "//" + prefix + ":include";
This does not work, when the prefix I get form the root
element is empty.
Note, that the xml I posted also uses
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema as default prefix.
Theoretiacally I schould get a list of prefixes for a given
namespace, because multiple aliases to the same namespace
are allowed, or are they not?
cheers

Thomas,
Could you give me an example that fails? I've tried to test
your problem, but all my XPath expressions were evaluated
correctly.
