NAME

       XML::LibXML::Namespace - XML::LibXML Namespace Implementation

SYNOPSIS

	 use XML::LibXML;
	 # Only methods specific to Namespace nodes are listed here,
	 # see XML::LibXML::Node manpage for other methods

	 my $ns = XML::LibXML::Namespace->new($nsURI);
	 print $ns->nodeName();
	 print $ns->name();
	 $localname = $ns->getLocalName();
	 print $ns->getData();
	 print $ns->getValue();
	 print $ns->value();
	 $known_uri = $ns->getNamespaceURI();
	 $known_prefix = $ns->getPrefix();

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. Note that in order to fix several inconsistencies between the API and the
       documentation, the behavior of some functions have been changed in 1.64.

METHODS

       new
	     my $ns = XML::LibXML::Namespace->new($nsURI);

	   Creates a new Namespace node. Note that this is not a 'node' as an attribute or an element node. Therefore you can't do call all
	   XML::LibXML::Node Functions. All functions available for this node are listed below.

	   Optionally you can pass the prefix to the namespace constructor. If this second parameter is omitted you will create a so called
	   default namespace. Note, the newly created namespace is not bound to any document or node, therefore you should not expect it to be
	   available in an existing document.

       declaredURI
	   Returns the URI for this namespace.

       declaredPrefix
	   Returns the prefix for this namespace.

       nodeName
	     print $ns->nodeName();

	   Returns "xmlns:prefix", where prefix is the prefix for this namespace.

       name
	     print $ns->name();

	   Alias for nodeName()

       getLocalName
	     $localname = $ns->getLocalName();

	   Returns the local name of this node as if it were an attribute, that is, the prefix associated with the namespace.

       getData
	     print $ns->getData();

	   Returns the URI of the namespace, i.e. the value of this node as if it were an attribute.

       getValue
	     print $ns->getValue();

	   Alias for getData()

       value
	     print $ns->value();

	   Alias for getData()

       getNamespaceURI
	     $known_uri = $ns->getNamespaceURI();

	   Returns the string "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/"

       getPrefix
	     $known_prefix = $ns->getPrefix();

	   Returns the string "xmlns"

NAME

       XML::LibXML::Attr - XML::LibXML Attribute Class

SYNOPSIS

	 use XML::LibXML;
	 # Only methods specific to Attribute nodes are listed here,
	 # see XML::LibXML::Node manpage for other methods

	 $attr = XML::LibXML::Attr->new($name [,$value]);
	 $string = $attr->getValue();
	 $string = $attr->value;
	 $attr->setValue( $string );
	 $node = $attr->getOwnerElement();
	 $attr->setNamespace($nsURI, $prefix);
	 $bool = $attr->isId;
	 $string = $attr->serializeContent;

DESCRIPTION

       This is the interface to handle Attributes like ordinary nodes. The naming of the class relies on the W3C DOM documentation.

METHODS

       The class inherits from XML::LibXML::Node. The documentation for Inherited methods is not listed here.

       Many functions listed here are extensively documented in the DOM Level 3 specification (<http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Core/>). Please
       refer to the specification for extensive documentation.

       new
	     $attr = XML::LibXML::Attr->new($name [,$value]);

	   Class constructor. If you need to work with ISO encoded strings, you should always use the "createAttribute" of XML::LibXML::Document.

       getValue
	     $string = $attr->getValue();

	   Returns the value stored for the attribute. If undef is returned, the attribute has no value, which is different of being "not
	   specified".

       value
	     $string = $attr->value;

	   Alias for getValue()

       setValue
	     $attr->setValue( $string );

	   This is needed to set a new attribute value. If ISO encoded strings are passed as parameter, the node has to be bound to a document,
	   otherwise the encoding might be done incorrectly.

       getOwnerElement
	     $node = $attr->getOwnerElement();

	   returns the node the attribute belongs to. If the attribute is not bound to a node, undef will be returned. Overwriting the underlying
	   implementation, the parentNode function will return undef, instead of the owner element.

       setNamespace
	     $attr->setNamespace($nsURI, $prefix);

	   This function tries to bound the attribute to a given namespace. If $nsURI is undefined or empty, the function discards any previous
	   association of the attribute with a namespace. If the namespace was not previously declared in the context of the attribute, this
	   function will fail. In this case you may wish to call setNamespace() on the ownerElement. If the namespace URI is non-empty and
	   declared in the context of the attribute, but only with a different (non-empty) prefix, then the attribute is still bound to the
	   namespace but gets a different prefix than $prefix. The function also fails if the prefix is empty but the namespace URI is not
	   (because unprefixed attributes should by definition belong to no namespace).  This function returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.

       isId
	     $bool = $attr->isId;

	   Determine whether an attribute is of type ID. For documents with a DTD, this information is only available if DTD loading/validation
	   has been requested. For HTML documents parsed with the HTML parser ID detection is done automatically.  In XML documents, all "xml:id"
	   attributes are considered to be of type ID.

       serializeContent($docencoding)
	     $string = $attr->serializeContent;

	   This function is not part of DOM API. It returns attribute content in the form in which it serializes into XML, that is with all meta-
	   characters properly quoted and with raw entity references (except for entities expanded during parse time). Setting the optional
	   $docencoding flag to 1 enforces document encoding for the output string (which is then passed to Perl as a byte string).  Otherwise the
	   string is passed to Perl as (UTF-8 encoded) characters.
