So what you're saying is my xpath needs to be written like this:


$doc->findnodes('//myns:root/myns:stuff/myns:items/myns:book');
[download]

Given the following:


<root xmlns="http://goobar/xml" xmlns:myns="http://goobar/xml">
  <stuff>
    <items>
       <book>XML Namespaces</book>
    </items>
  </stuff>
</root>
[download]

That is really an ugly xpath expression.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
