The only references I’ve found online are to an old bug in Chrome.
Error: NAMESPACE_ERR: DOM Exception 14
I generated this with the following xpath expression generated by Firebug:
id('content')/x:div[2]/x:div[3]/x:div[1]/x:h2[2]
This causes this javascript line to fail:
document.evaluate("id('content')/x:div[2]/x:div[3]/x:div[1]/x:h2[2]", document, null, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null)
The fix is very simple: remove the namespaces – the “x:”, like so:
id('content')/div[2]/div[3]/div[1]/h2[2]
And then the JS code will work:
document.evaluate("id('content')/div[2]/div[3]/div[1]/h2[2]", document, null, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null)
