Because the local name is the same as the name in your example for the a element. If you will have <s:svg xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <s:a>aadsf</s:a> </s:svg> than you will get different results.

Hello!

I have found workaround but I wonder why it must be done in that way..
Is it some kind of bug in XPath?

I have simple document:<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<a>aadsf</a> </svg>

And now "//a" doesn't find a node.. I must use //*[local-name() =
'a'], but funny thing is that //*[name() = 'a'] works as well.. Why is
that?

Thanks,
Adam
