public void AddNamespace (
    string Prefix,
    string uri
);

IXMLNamespaces.DeleteNamespace Method

Deletes a namespace from the element.

    ByVal uri As String _
)

public void DeleteNamespace (
    string uri
);

IXMLNamespaces.NamespaceCount Property

Number of namespaces.

Public ReadOnly Property NamespaceCount As Integer

public int NamespaceCount {get;}

IXMLNamespaces.NamespaceURI Property

The namespace URI for a namespace.

Public Function get_NamespaceURI ( _
    ByVal Index As Integer _
) As String

public string get_NamespaceURI (
    int Index
);

Classes that implement IXMLNamespaces

Classes	Description
XMLNamespaces	A collection of XML namespace declarations.

Remarks

Very often a name conflict might occur when two different xml documents use the same name describing two different elements. This is caused because XML element names are not fixed. To avoid this conflict prefix can precede an element name.For example,there are two elements <test></test>and<test></test>in XML document. Prefix is used to make these elements different: <f:test></f:test> and <h:test></h:test>The namespace attribute is placed in the start tag of an element and has the following syntax: xmlns:prefix="namespace"For example,<f:test xmlns:f="xml test"></f:test>where "f" is a namespace prefix, and "xml test" is a namespace URI (Unique Resource Identifier).Use the AddNamespace method to add new napespaces (prefix and namespace URI) to the element, theDeleteNamespace method removes the specified namespace by its URI. The NamespaceCount property returns number of namespaces in the list. The Prefix and the NameSpaceURIproperties return the prefix and the URI of the namespace.
