I presume you don't need to be reminded that the prefix used in the instance document may be different from the prefix used in the schema document, and that in fact either or both of these may have several prefixes bound to the same namespace simultaneously and/or sequentially...

Using the method getNamespaceItems() I can get a list of XSNamespaceItem and using the getSchemaNamespace() method I can get all the namespaces. How do I get the associated prefix for each prefix? Thanks - Mark
