Thank you!
Spended almost two days trying to resolve namespace issue, and than found this video, thank you.

[@adrianwalker9917]

This was EXACTLY what I was looking for but I didn't know it. Thank you!!

[@AlvaroMelchor]

Thanks, it's very clear, most of the tutorials cover only the non namespaces xml

[@stevemorse5052]

Francesco, thank you.
Thanks to you I now somewhat understand what is happening in the XML file I have, I did not know that is contained name spaces.
Within the first 6 minutes, I am writing this before I have read the comments or watched the whole video.
You have saved me hours of coding as I was going to write my own parser.
All the other video sorta, kinds, neglected this small detail!
Now after reading the comments, I see you have helped a LOT of people, thank you again.

Thank yopu so much, I was beginning to think I was cursed to manually write a text parser for these xml files forever.

[@saranya548]

Thank you Francesco for explaining this concept so easily with a demo.

[@maloman1989]

Really cristal clear tutorial, I understand a lot of things I dindn't understand on XML namespaces, Thanks a lot Guy!

[@5328csabi]

Tried to find a solutuion on stackoverflow and other pages, and this video was the solution, good examples, good explanation with actual codes run. Thank you!

[@LukasNachtigall]

Hey man! You just helped me to finish my parser! I do not know how, but I finally was able to find and change a text in each specific element in my XML file. I still do not understand, why I have to register the namespace, but it did the work perfectly. Your vide was really helpful. I didn't understood 70% of it for the 1st time, but now it's more clear to me. Thanks man!

[@equipagescatamaranlangrune8331]

Nice job Francesco, thank you. I do have a question regarding your last example. How do you get x.tag without the namespace in it ?

[@AnEngineeringGirl]

After editing the xml file, I don't want the ns tag in each line. What should I do?

[@sreepulipaka4918]

Can you help me with how to search absolute XPath in a xml that has name spaces as I donot want to implement code with relative path.

[@KiviliG]

Can this be done with beautifulsoup?

[@mihailazarescu1297]

Next time, please try to make your videos for phone users too. Thanks!

[@Gamer-mg6my]

Hi. I have this xmlns and i tried every solution and i can't read the XML with this namespace:
.....
Some idea to solve this? :/
it is a xml, but the extension file is .vdx

[@fcento]

Not enough information. What error do you get?

[@Gamer-mg6my]
