---------------------------------------
Hi Olivier,
Its best if you ask questions on the mailing list rather than in Jira. As Joe
said in the comment on 1030, you do still need to resolve namespaces. An
element has a namespace even if there is no prefix. You will need to bind one
yourself. Take a look in the mail archives and here:
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/xpath_apis.html#namespacecontext
For more information. If its still not clear then ask the list.

> Key: XALANJ-2549
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2549
> Project: XalanJ2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: No security risk; visible to anyone(Ordinary problems in
> Xalan projects. Anybody can view the issue.)
> Components: Xalan
> Affects Versions: 2.7.1
> Reporter: Olivier Roger
> Labels: xalan, xpath
>
> Hi,
>
> I am having difficulties to use XPath query on a XML dataset having its root
> element with an *xmlns attribute with no prefix*.
>
> In that specific case, the XPath query does not return the value. Since I
> have no prefix for the namespace I simply can get the value.
> It this a known issue or am I simply doing something wrong ?
> Here is my XML :
> {noformat:title=default-ns.xml}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <report xmlns="http://www.mydomain.com/report";>
> <account_number>123</account_number>
> </report>
> {noformat}
> {code}
> @Test
> public void xPathDefaultNS() throws XPathExpressionException {
> javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory factory =
> javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory.newInstance();
> javax.xml.xpath.XPath xpath = factory.newXPath();
> javax.xml.xpath.XPathExpression expression =
> xpath.compile("/report/account_number");
> String result = expression.evaluate(new
> org.xml.sax.InputSource(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("default-ns.xml")));
> Assert.assertTrue("123".equals(result));
> }
> {code}
