you should be able to use the
startPrefixMapping(prefix, uri)
and
endPrefixMapping(prefix)
methods in the content handler to maintain your own prefix2namespace mapping.
also see:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/content-handler-objects.html
(don't forget that prefixes are nested; the same prefix can map to different
URI:s at
different locations in the same document, so you cannot use a single dictionary
for
the mapping. also note that SAX doesn't guarantee that startPrefix and
endPrefix
events are properly nested...)
