The ElementName(xmlTree) command returns the element tag name of the XML element represented by the Maple XML tree xmlTree.

The element tag name is returned as a string, including any namespace prefix, if present. To distinguish between elements whose element types belong to different namespaces, yet print the same, use the XMLTools[ElementType] command.
