How use xml with namespaces

Question

I have the following xml which is output from Oracle Bpel.
<OglRapportPerAdresnrResponse xmlns="http://www.itude.com/technology/Ogl/RapportPerAdresnrResponse">
<AdresGegevens>
<Adresnr>54321</Adresnr>
<Straatkode>12345</Straatkode>
</AdresGegevens>
</OglRapportPerAdresnrResponse>
If i remove the namespace info everything works fine but with the namespace info the output is empty if i insert e.g. <Adresnr> into a template. The field browser shows everything fine and also the value but when rendering a PDF it disappears. I read in the user guide that i need to declare the namspace in a form field like <?namespace:namespace name= namespace url?> but how do i do that with the above namespace notation where the namespace name is empty ?

Hi Tim,
I found part of the solution but i am still stuck when i need to use <?for-each?> tags. When i use the following XML:
<OglRapportPerAdresnrResponse xmlns="http://www.itude.com/technology/Ogl/RapportPerAdresnrResponse">
     <AdresGegevens>
          <Adresnr>8391</Adresnr>
          <Straatkode>11070</Straatkode>
     </AdresGegevens>
     <Basisgegevens>
          <paramPResult xmlns="urn:generated.ws.kgb.itude.com">
               <paramAdresnr>8391</paramAdresnr>
               <paramGegevenstype>GEBRUIK</paramGegevenstype>
          </paramPResult>
          <paramPResult xmlns="urn:generated.ws.kgb.itude.com">
               <paramAdresnr>8391</paramAdresnr>
               <paramGegevenstype>STADSDEEL</paramGegevenstype>
          </paramPResult>
     </Basisgegevens>
</OglRapportPerAdresnrResponse>
I read the xml file in Word. I then have access to the fields but when i select AdresGegevens/Adresnr the output is not rendered. The namespace is a default namespace for that element. I found out that if i define a namespace like <?xmlns:bpel=http://www.itude.com/technology/Ogl/RapportPerAdresnrResponse?> and then access the AdresGegevens/Adresnr through <?bpel:Adresnr?> it works!
I then defined a second namespace <?xmlns:bpel2=urn:generated.ws.kgb.itude.com?> and tried to render the paramPResult tags with:
<?for-each:paramPResult?>
<?bpel2:paramAdresnr?>
<?bpel2:paramGegevenstype?>
<?end for-each?>
But the above does not work. Any ideas?
