BE THE CODER > XML > XOM Examples > Xpath Query Namespace

XOM (XML Object Model) is a tree based java API for processing XML by taking the best ideas from SAX and DOM. It is simple, fast and easy to use. This requires the library xom-1.2.7.jar to be in classpath. The following example shows querying an XML document with namespace using XPath expression.
