[xsl] Clark notation in XPath

Dear All



I was talking to someone at Microsoft last week about greater adoption of XML in 
general and some of the things people struggle with.



One idea was to allow Clark notation when doing searches on documents as 
developers seem to struggle with the idea that that don't need to know the 
actual prefix used in a document.



Let's say I have in memory a document that has all elements in the 
http://myDomain.co.uk/namespaces/ns1 namespace.

I can select an element using the xpath:



MyDom.select("{http://myDomain.co.uk/namespaces/ns1}myElement")



Of course this is not standard but I'm sure similar ideas have been mooted in 
the past so I'd appreciate your comments.



Joe
