See more XML Examples

Demonstrates new features added in Chilkat v9.5.0.77 for helping with namespace prefixed tags. AutoIt

; First create some XML using namespace prefixed tags.

; Create this XML. 
; Use this online tool to generate the code from sample XML: 
; Generate Code to Create XML

; <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"

;          <scm:token>123</scm:token>
