Is there an easy way in REXML to get the namespace that is associated with a
given prefix?

You can use REXML::Element#namespace if you are using a-la DOM API.

----------Example-----------------
require ‘rexml/document’

xml = <<XML

<?xml version='1.0'?> XML

doc = REXML::Document.new(xml)

p doc.root.namespace(“fuga”)
p doc.elements[“/a/b”].namespace(“fuga”)
p doc.elements[“/a/b/c”].namespace(“fuga”)
p doc.elements[“/a/d”].namespace(“fuga”)
----------Example-----------------

----------Output------------------
“foo”
“foo”
“hoge”
“bar”
----------Output------------------
