The XPath implementation in MSXML 4.0 introduces a set of XSD extension functions that can specify expressions that evaluate nodes in an XML document based on their data type. The ms:type-local-name XPath extension function can return the non-qualified name of a node's data type as defined in an associated XSD schema.

The XPath implementation in MSXML version 4.0 introduces a set of XML Schema Definition (XSD) extension functions that can specify expressions that evaluate nodes in an XML document based on the data type of the nodes. The ms:type-namespace-uri XPath extension function can return the namespace Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that is associated with the XSD data type of the current node, or the first node in the node set that is provided as its input parameter. This function can run XPath queries in MSXML 4.0 DOM code to identify nodes whose data types are associated with a specified namespace URI. This article provides a code sample to demonstrate how to use the ms:type-namespace-uri XPath extension function when you program the MSXML 4.0 DOM in PowerBASIC.
