    Looking for XPath solution with namespaces.

    Hi:

    I'm looking to get the values of QueueUrl, and RequestId from below
    using XPath but I can't get past soapenv:Body without using wild
    cards. For example these move down the tree:

    /soapenv:Envelop e/soapenv:Body/*
    /soapenv:Envelop e/soapenv:Body/*/*

    But this gives me nothing:
    /soapenv:Envelop e/soapenv:Body/CreateQueueResp onse/*

    I have a feeling it has to do with the xmlns in the
    CreateQueueResp onse but I can't find anything that documents how to
    deal with it in XPath.

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <soapenv:Envelo pe xmlns:soapenv=" http://schemas.xmlsoap .org/soap/
    envelope/">
    <soapenv:Body >
    <CreateQueueRes ponse xmlns="http://queue.amazonaws .com/doc/
    2008-01-01">
    <CreateQueueRes ult>
    <QueueUrl>htt p://queue.amazonaws .com/foo</QueueUrl>
    </CreateQueueResu lt>
    <ResponseMetada ta>
    <RequestId>9350 82d0-a431-4da0-a5f1</RequestId>
    </ResponseMetadat a></CreateQueueResp onse>
    </soapenv:Body>
    </soapenv:Envelop e>

      The CreateQueueResp onse element and its descendant elements are in the
      http://queue.amazonaws.com/doc/2008-01-01 namespace. So pick a namespace
      prefix for this namespace, register it in your XPath application and use
      it in the XPath.

          Thanks for the reply. I thought this was possible directly in XPath
          with something like "{http://queue.amazonaws.com/doc/
          2008-01-01}CreateQueueR esponse"? Perhaps that is dependent on the
          parser though.
