Remarks

Get prefix bound to Namespace URI in the current scope.

To get all prefixes bound to a Namespace URI in the current scope, use #getPrefixes(String namespaceURI).

When requesting a prefix by Namespace URI, the following table describes the returned prefix value for all Namespace URI values:

<table border="2" rules="all" cellpadding="4"> <thead> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="2"> getPrefix(namespaceURI) return value for specified Namespace URIs </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Namespace URI parameter</td> <td>prefix value returned</td> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td><default Namespace URI></td> <td>XMLConstants.DEFAULT_NS_PREFIX ("") </td> </tr> <tr> <td>bound Namespace URI</td> <td>prefix bound to Namespace URI in the current scope, if multiple prefixes are bound to the Namespace URI in the current scope, a single arbitrary prefix, whose choice is implementation dependent, is returned</td> </tr> <tr> <td>unbound Namespace URI</td> <td>null</td> </tr> <tr> <td>XMLConstants.XML_NS_URI ("http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace")</td> <td>XMLConstants.XML_NS_PREFIX ("xml")</td> </tr> <tr> <td>XMLConstants.XMLNS_ATTRIBUTE_NS_URI ("http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/")</td> <td>XMLConstants.XMLNS_ATTRIBUTE ("xmlns")</td> </tr> <tr> <td>null</td> <td>IllegalArgumentException is thrown</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
