[cfaussie] Re: XMLSearch on XMLSearch?

[Spike]

You can do it as long as you introduce an extra step to turn the result 
of the search into an xml document again.

e.g.

<cfxml variable="xmlTest">
  <company>
    <departments>
      <marketing>
        <employee manager="true">
          <firstname>Bob</firstname>
          <surname>Cratchitt</surname>
          <email>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</email>
        </employee>
        <employee>
          <firstname>Tiny</firstname>
          <surname>Tim</surname>
          <email>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</email>
        </employee>
      </marketing>
      <sales>
      </sales>
      <finance>
      </finance>
    </departments>
  </company>
</cfxml>
<cfset xSearch = XMLSearch(xmlTest, "/company/departments/marketing")>
<cfxml 
variable="newXml"><cfoutput><root>#xSearch[1].toString()#</root></cfoutput></cfxml>
<cfset xSubSearch = XMLSearch(newXml,"/root/marketing/[EMAIL PROTECTED]")>
<cfdump var="#xSubSearch#">

Hey All,

Is there a way, because I can't seem to find one, where I can go:
 
<cfscript>
            xSearch = XMLSearch(XMLDoc, "/root/branch/");
 
            xSearchSub = XMLSearch(xSearch,
"/extra/[EMAIL PROTECTED]");
</cfscript>
 
Without it throwing a total wobbly?
 
I tried taking the individual nodes of the xSearch result, and searching
on them, or using them to create a new XML document.. but they don't
seem to resolve into REAL XML elements.
 
Either (a) you can't do this or (b) I'm missing something.
 
TIA
 
Mark
