composite name doesn't have to be taken apart.

String nss = "{" + myNamespace + "}";
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
  whatever = (Whatever) iterator.next();
  if (whatever.name().startsWith(myNamespace))
    doMyProcessing(whatever);
}

Not very efficient but workable.

David, how about introducing a new class: Name.

static final String FOO_NS = "http://www.foo.com/ns";
private Name foobar = new Name(FOO_NS, "bar");
private Name fooid = new Name(FOO_NS, "id");
...
void startElement(Name name, AttributeList atts) {
  if (name.equals(foobar)) {
    String id = atts.getValue(fooid);
  }
}

Best,
