copy-namespaces declaration

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

A copy-namespaces declaration sets the value of copy-namespaces mode in the static context, overriding any implementation-defined default. Copy-namespaces mode controls the namespace bindings that are assigned when an existing element node is copied by an element constructor or document constructor.
copy-namespaces mode.

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

Copy-namespaces mode. This component controls the namespace bindings that are assigned when an existing element node is copied by an element constructor, as described in . Its value consists of two parts: preserve or no-preserve, and inherit or no-inherit.
default element/type namespace.

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

Default element/type namespace. This is a namespace URI or "none". The namespace URI, if present, is used for any unprefixed QName appearing in a position where an element or type name is expected.
default element/type namespace.

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

Default element/type namespace. This is a namespace URI or "none". The namespace URI, if present, is used for any unprefixed QName appearing in a position where an element or type name is expected.
default function namespace.

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

Default function namespace. This is a namespace URI or "none". The namespace URI, if present, is used for any unprefixed QName appearing in a position where a function name is expected.
default function namespace.

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

Default function namespace. This is a namespace URI or "none". The namespace URI, if present, is used for any unprefixed QName appearing in a position where a function name is expected.
default namespace

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

If the attribute name matches DefaultAttName, then the namespace name in the attribute value is that of the default namespace in the scope of the element to which the declaration is attached.
default namespace

From Namespaces in XML (1999-01-14) | Glossary for this source

If the attribute name matches DefaultAttName, then the namespace name in the attribute value is that of the default namespace in the scope of the element to which the declaration is attached.
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.
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.
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.
namespace name

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

For a name N in a namespace identified by an IRI I, the namespace name is I. For a name N that is not in a namespace, the namespace name has no value.
namespace name

From Namespaces in XML (1999-01-14) | Glossary for this source

The attribute's value, a URI reference, is the namespace name identifying the namespace.
namespace prefix

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

If the attribute name matches PrefixedAttName, then the NCName gives the namespace prefix, used to associate element and attribute names with the namespace name in the attribute value in the scope of the element to which the declaration is attached.
