Thanks Mike for clarification, and more information..
I did'nt knew namespace URIs could be null. At a
superficial level, I think namespace URIs cannot be
null in a XML document(or can they be?). I believe you
are referring null, when programming with XML
namespaces in a programming language(likely using some
APIs)?
Thanks in advance for any answers..

Mukul
