                QName

A qualified element or attribute name.

The unicode value of instances of this class contains the qualified name of the element or attribute, in the form {namespace-uri}local-name. The namespace URI can be obtained through the additional namespace attribute, while the local name can be accessed through the localname attribute.

>>> qname = QName('foo')
>>> qname
QName('foo')
>>> qname.localname
u'foo'
>>> qname.namespace

>>> qname = QName('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml}body')
>>> qname
QName('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml}body')
>>> qname.localname
u'body'
>>> qname.namespace
u'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'
