NAME

XML::LibXML::Namespace - A Namespace Class to hold namespace nodes

synopsis

 use XML::LibXML
 print $ns->getName()
 print $ns->name()
 print $ns->prefix()
 $localname = $ns->getLocalName()
 print $ns->getData()
 print $ns->getValue()
 print $ns->value()
 print $ns->uri()
 $known_uri = $ns->getNamespaceURI()
 $known_prefix = $ns->getPredix()

DESCRIPTION

Namespace nodes are returned by both $element->findnodes('namespace::foo') or by $node->getNamespaces().

The namespace node API is not part of any current DOM API, and so it is quite minimal. It should be noted that namespace nodes are not a sub class of XML::LibXML::Node, however Namespace nodes act a lot like attribute nodes, and similarly named methods will return what you would expect if you treated the namespace node as an attribute.

Methods
