          public NSStack()

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### push

          public void push()

    - #### pop

          public void pop()

      Leave a scope: this removes any NS declarations that were added in the last scope. Note that I don't bother to validate that you don't call popScope too many times; that's your problem.

    - #### add

          public void add(String prefix,
                          String uri)

      Add a new declaration to the current scope. This is visible within the current scope as well as from any nested scopes.
      Parameters:
        `prefix` - the prefix to be used for this namespace
        `uri` - the namespace name of this namespace.

    - #### add

          public String add(String uri)

      Add a new declaration to the current scope using a unique prefix and return the prefix. This is useful when one just wants to add a decl and doesn't want to have to deal with creating unique prefixes. If the namespace name is already declared and in scope, then the previously declared prefix is returned.
      Parameters:
        `uri` - the namespace name of this namespace
      Returns:
        the unique prefix created or previously declared for this namespace

    - #### getPrefix

          public String getPrefix(String uri)

      Return the prefix associated with the given namespace name by looking thru all the namespace declarations that are in scope.
      Parameters:
        `uri` - the namespace name for whom a declared prefix is desired
      Returns:
        the prefix or null if namespace name not found

    - #### getURI

          public String getURI(String prefix)

      Return the namespace name associated with the given prefix by looking thru all the namespace declarations that are in scope.
      Parameters:
        `prefix` - the prefix for whom a declared namespace name is desired
      Returns:
        the namespace name or null if prefix not found
