Remarks

Return one of the prefixes mapped to a Namespace URI.

If more than one prefix is currently mapped to the same URI, this method will make an arbitrary selection; if you want all of the prefixes, use the #getPrefixes method instead.

<strong>Note:</strong> this will never return the empty (default) prefix; to check for a default prefix, use the #getURI getURI method with an argument of "".
