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

SYNOPSIS
         my $ns = XML::LibXML::Namespace->new($nsURI);
         print $ns->getName();
         print $ns->name();
         print $ns->prefix();
         $localname = $ns->getLocalName();
         print $ns->getData();
         print $ns->getValue();
         print $ns->value();
         print $ns->uri();
         $knownuri = $ns->getNamespaceURI();
         $knownprefix = $ns->getPredix();

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.

       nneeww
             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 docuement or node, therefore you should not expect it to be
           available in an existing document.

       ggeettNNaammee
             print $ns->getName();

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

       nnaammee
             print $ns->name();

           Alias for getName()

       pprreeffiixx
             print $ns->prefix();

           Returns the prefix bound to this namespace declaration.

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

           Alias for prefix()

       ggeettDDaattaa
             print $ns->getData();

           Returns the URI of the namespace.

       ggeettVVaalluuee
             print $ns->getValue();

           Alias for getData()

       vvaalluuee
             print $ns->value();

           Alias for getData()

       uurrii
             print $ns->uri();

           Alias for getData()

       ggeettNNaammeessppaacceeUURRII
             $knownuri = $ns->getNamespaceURI();

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

       ggeettPPrreeffiixx
             $knownprefix = $ns->getPredix();

           Returns the string "xmlns"
