The XML Document snippet is

I think if you want to use that API successfully with XPath and XSLT then you need to first ensure that you create a namespace aware DocumentBuilderFactory with i.e. DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); dbf.setNamespaceAware(true); DocumentBuilder builder = dbf.newDocumentBuilder(); as http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/xml/parsers/DocumentBuilderFactory.html#setNamespaceAware%28boolean%29 says the default is false. Nevertheless then, as long as you use XPath 1.0, you need to bind and use a prefix for to select any nodes in a namespace.
