The Namespace class works with XML namespaces in ActionScript 3.0 and there are two way to define namespaces for working with XML.

var myXML:XML = 
<foo:order xmlns:foo = "http://www.example.com/foo"> 
<foo:book ISBN="0942407296" xmlns:bar = "http://www.example.com/bar"> 
<bar:title>The Book</bar:title> 
<foo:pageCount>238</foo:pageCount> 
</foo:book> 
</foo:order>;

var foo:Namespace = myXML.namespace("foo");
var bar:Namespace = myXML.foo::book.namespace("bar");

The namespaces can be defined with the constructor of Namespace class if you already know the URIs of them.

var foo:Namespace = new Namespace("foo", "http://www.example.com/foo");
var bar:Namespace = new Namespace("bar", "http://www.example.com/bar");
