Unless you also bind the ww prefix to a namespace URI e.g.
   <xmldoc xmlns:ww="http://example.org/2005/02/whatever">
the above seems not well-formed (at least when looking at both XML 1.0 
and Namespaces for XML).

Make sure you use the namespace URI that is defined in the document.

Not sure what that XPath is supposed to select
   *
selects elements with any name
   ww:*
all elements in the namespace bound to the prefix ww.
