You might be able to pre-process the file and wrap the three files in one root element. Or parse each seperately and grab their root elements. Then detach those roots from the documents, add them to a wrapper element that had a document that included all possible namesapces that might occur in the three documents.
This is off the top of my head, I am sure there are lots of ways to approach this, but I still wonder how you got to this approach.
Let us know more...

Hi;
Is there a way to set up dom4j where I can give it multiple xml files and treat it as a single document? (So dom4j does the work of handling namespaces, etc.)
And if the answer is no, any suggestions for a good way to handle a case where I need to perform xpath on 3 xml files at once aside from parsing it for the namespaces myself?
thanks - dave
