Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Getting the pages in a given category.


Hi all,
using the mediawiki API, I can list the pages in a given category. For example:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=categorymembers&cmtitle=Category:Physics

returns:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<api>
<query>
<categorymembers>
<cmpageid="22939"ns="0"title="Physics"/>
<cmpageid="24489"ns="0"title="Outline of physics"/>
<cmpageid="1653925"ns="100"title="Portal:Physics"/>
<cmpageid="3445246"ns="0"title="Glossary of classical physics"/>
<cmpageid="22950086"ns="0"title="Britney Spears&#039; Guide to
Semiconductor Physics"/>
<cmpageid="2129107"ns="14"title="Category:Fundamental physics concepts"/>
<cmpageid="4769321"ns="0"title="Timeline of fundamental physics
discoveries"/>
<cmpageid="694942"ns="14"title="Category:Physicists"/>
<cmpageid="1198"ns="0"title="Acoustics"/>
<cmpageid="1913676"ns="14"title="Category:Applied and interdisciplinary
physics"/>
</categorymembers>
</query>
<query-continue>
<categorymemberscmcontinue="Atomic, molecular, and optical physics|"/>
</query-continue>
</api>

I now want to limit my query to only one MW namespace. I have tried to use the
cmnamespace parameter. But

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=categorymembers&cmtitle=Category:Physics&cmnamespace=0

returns the same result. How should I use this namespace parameter ?
