This helped a lot. Question for you: how would I handle multiple namespace prefixes, such as the following: [item:group] [widget:typeA attr1="" attr2=""/] [/item:group] If I wanted to get the values of attribute one and two of the widget, how would that be done? Thanks, - MT Kevin, great article! This helped a lot. Question for you: how would I handle multiple namespace prefixes, such as the following:

I have been trying to get a value from a node with a namespace for quite some time now and couldn't quite figure it out. Thanks. Great article.

I bought the book previously and this missing topic is just what I'm stuck on. If you could indulge my ignorance, I am still stuck on how to parse multiple namespace items with multiple attributes on the same level. I am trying to parse the yahoo weather rss feed: <channel> ... <yweather:location city="Tombstone" region="Arizona" country="US"><yweather:location> ... <yweather:astronomy sunrise="7:02am" sunset="4:51pm"><yweather:astronomy> ... <channel> how do I get to sunrise for instance? $sunrise = ? Thanks! Kevin,

I'd like to find the URI in code, but all examples have it hard-coded. Is there any way to (automatically) get the xmlns:dc URL from the code?
