Namespace headache

[egholm@gmail.com]

I'm using the following XML:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microso ft.com/sharepoint/">
<Module Url="_catalogs/masterpage" Path="PageLayou ts">
<File Url="List.aspx" Type="Ghostable InLibrary">
</Module>
</Elements>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I query the xml with the code below I get no results.
But if I remove the namespace "xmlns="htt p://schemas.microso ft.com/
sharepoint/"" from xml above everything works fine. I want to keep the
namespace in the xml. What do I do wrong?

XElement pagelayouts = XElement.Load(" ProvisionedFile s.xml");
var query = from c in pagelayouts.Des cendants("File" ) select c;

foreach(var q in query)
{
//Something
}

Re: Namespace headache

Found a solution. This will do the trick:

XNamespace ns = "http://schemas.microso ft.com/sharepoint/";
XElement pagelayouts = XElement.Load(" ProvisionedFile s.xml");
var query = from c in pagelayouts.Des cendants(ns + "File") select c;
