XML Namespaces

Each namespace entry has two fields:

Namespace prefix

The namespace prefix.

Namespace URI

The URI (Uniform Resource Indicator - loosely synonymous with IRL) that identifies this namespace.

An XML document can have its own namespace declarations. Hence you can get the situation in which:

An XML document uses a namespace prefix.
Both the document and the file type settings have a namespace declaration for this prefix.

To specify how WorldServer resolves such a situation, see one of the following options:

Option	Description
Namespace URI if xmlns: is declared in documents, prefix if not	If a namespace declaration in the document defines a prefix, use it. Otherwise, use the namespace declaration in the file type settings (that is, on this page). (Use namespace declarations in the file type settings to resolve prefixes that are not in the document declarations.)
Prefix only (ignore xmlns: declarations in the document)	If a namespace declaration in the file type settings (that is, on this page), defines a prefix, then use it. Otherwise use the namespace declaration in the document. (Use the namespace declarations in the document to resolve prefixes that are not in the file type settings declarations.)
