package{
  import flash.display.Sprite;
  
  public class Main extends Sprite{
    public function Main(){

        var catalog:XML = <html xmlns:shop="http://www.example.com/furniture"
              xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
          <head>
            <title>Catalog</title>
          </head>
          <body>
            <shop:table shop:id="4875">
              <table border="1">
                <tr align="center">
                  <td>Item</td>
                  <td>Price</td>
                </tr>
                <tr align="left">
                  <td><shop:desc>Table</shop:desc></td>
                  <td><shop:price>9.99</shop:price></td>
                </tr>
              </table>
            </shop:table>
          </body>
        </html>
        
        var shopNS:Namespace = catalog.namespace("shop");
        
        //default xml namespace = shopNS;
        for each (var table:XML in catalog..table) {
          trace(table..desc + ": " + table..price);
        }
        

    }
