Detailed Description

An XML namespace.

Note that prefix == NULL is valid, it defines the default namespace within the subtree (until overridden).

xmlNsType is unified with xmlElementType.

Note that the XPath engine returns XPath namespace nodes as xmlNs cast to xmlNode. This is a terrible design decision that can easily cause type confusion errors. In this case, the next member points to the xmlNode element to which the namespace node belongs.
