Could we get a full stack trace and sample code on this one? Also what 
version of Java are you using?  From the error message it *looks* like a 
disconnect between Java 1.3 and 1.4, but Jaxen shouldn't have any such 
dependence and I can't find one in these classes at the moment.

3)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'B']/row/[some_node='val1'|some_node='val2']
exception thrown: union is only allowed over node-sets
<which is correct>
changing it to [EMAIL PROTECTED]'B']/row/[some_node='val1' or 
some_node='val2']
makes it work.
The error message is correct. XPath 1.0 does not allow unions of 
booleans. This has been tightened up in Jaxen in the recent past. Jaxen 
used to allow this, but that was a mistake. Jaxen no longer allows this.
