extension namespaces

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

The extension instruction mechanism allows namespaces to be designated as extension namespaces. When a namespace is designated as an extension namespace and an element with a name from that namespace occurs in a sequence constructor, then the element is treated as an instruction rather than as a literal result element.
in-scope namespaces

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

The in-scope namespaces property of an element node is a set of namespace bindings, each of which associates a namespace prefix with a URI, thus defining the set of namespace prefixes that are available for interpreting QNames within the scope of the element. For a given element, one namespace binding may have an empty prefix; the URI of this namespace binding is the default namespace within the scope of the element.
in-scope namespaces

From XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

The in-scope namespaces property of an element node is a set of namespace bindings, each of which associates a namespace prefix with a URI, thus defining the set of namespace prefixes that are available for interpreting QNames within the scope of the element. For a given element, one namespace binding may have an empty prefix; the URI of this namespace binding is the default namespace within the scope of the element.
key name

From XML Key Management (XKMS 2.0) Requirements (2003-05-05) | Glossary for this source

A property defined in the XML Digital Signature recommendation, allowing a name to be associated with a key within a element. The Key Name property is not required and when associated with a key in registration is not required to be a unique identifier for that key.
lexical qName

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

A lexical QName is a string representing a QName in the form (NCName ":")? NCName, that is, a local name optionally preceded by a namespace prefix.
literal namespace URI

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

A namespace URI in the stylesheet tree that is being used to specify a namespace URI in the result tree is called a literal namespace URI.
local name

From Namespaces in XML 1.1 (2004-02-04) | Glossary for this source

In either case the local name is N.
name

From Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.1 (2004-02-04) | Glossary for this source

A Name is a token beginning with a letter or one of a few punctuation characters, and continuing with letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, colons, or full stops, together known as name characters.
name

From OWL Web Ontology Language Guide (2004-02-10) | Glossary for this source

as in XML Namespaces
name

From Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (2000-10-06) | Glossary for this source

A Name is a token beginning with a letter or one of a few punctuation characters, and continuing with letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, colons, or full stops, together known as name characters.
name expression

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

When an expression is used to specify the name of a constructed node, that expression is called the name expression of the constructor.
name test

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

A node test that consists only of a QName or a Wildcard is called a name test.
name test

From XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

A node test that consists only of a QName or a Wildcard is called a name test.
named class

From OWL Web Ontology Language Guide (2004-02-10) | Glossary for this source

an OWL class with an associated identifier
named template

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

Templates can be invoked by name. An xsl:template element with a name attribute defines a named template.
namespace

From Composite Capability/Preference Profiles (CC/PP): Structure and Vocabularies 1.0 (2004-01-15) | Glossary for this source

A qualifier added to an XML tag to ensure uniqueness among XML elements.
namespace declaration

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

A namespace declaration declares a namespace prefix and associates it with a namespace URI, adding the (prefix, URI) pair to the set of statically known namespaces.
namespace declaration attribute

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

A namespace declaration attribute is used inside a direct element constructor. Its purpose is to bind a namespace prefix or to set the default element/type namespace for the constructed element node, including its attributes.
namespace document

From Architecture of the World Wide Web, Volume One (2004-12-15) | Glossary for this source

An information resource identified by an XML Namespace URI that contains useful information, machine-usable and/or human-usable, about terms in a particular XML namespace. It is useful, though not manditory, that the URI employed as a namespace name identifies a namespace document.
namespace fixup

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

The rules for the individual XSLT instructions that construct a result tree (see ) prescribe some of the situations in which namespace nodes are written to the tree. These rules, however, are not sufficient to ensure that the prescribed constraints are always satisfied. The XSLT processor must therefore add additional namespace nodes to satisfy these constraints. This process is referred to as namespace fixup.
