Property Names and XML

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

When an application accesses a Web Store property by using HTTP 1.1 extensions, the property name, when placed into an XML stream, is disassembled into its namespace and name parts and then reassembled when taken out of the stream and saved to the item in the Web Store. This happens transparently within the WebDAV service itself. The following rules are used to identify the namespace and the name portions of a fully qualified property name when disassembling it for transport over HTTP:

The following table shows how a fully qualified property name is disassembled into its parts.

Namespace Name Fully qualified property name
