To be pedantic, no.
There is no such thing as "*the* namespace URI" as far
as the Namespace spec is concerned (though specs like
the DOM and XSL use such erroneous terminology).
The thing we're talking about is "*the* namespace name".
... which, as I wrote, *typically*, would be the namespace URI, eg a
URL. By "the namespace URI", I mean the namespace URI which acts as
namespace name in this specific instance, eg
<xmltag
namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>transform</...
A namespace name is (per its definition) a URI reference,
an example of which would be a URL.
Yes, that's what I wrote.
(perhaps in a way that's prone to be misunderstood?)
But as I said, all this is pedantic--I'm pretty sure we're
really talking about the same thing.
Yes. But perhaps I'm missing something ...
