Hi all, I am trying to figure out xpath queries, but I am missing something and/or running into bugs. John pointed me at Bug #164, which has been closed, but I still have problems. Here is a simple script with two alerts. Each alert should report "United States" from the embedded xml.
o The 1st alert works on on FF but not IE6 o The 2nd alert does not work on either Are these bugs? Do I need to open a bug on these? Am I doing this wrong? Thanks, -Steve Here is a url to test it: http://imaptools.com:8081/maps/test2.html Here is source: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ // get the xml data island var xml = $("#aaa"); // this searches the dom and works in FF but not IE 6 alert( $('//[EMAIL PROTECTED]"country"]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]"NAME"]' ).text()); // this should search using the xml variable as context // this does not work in either FF or IE6 alert( $('//[EMAIL PROTECTED]"country"]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]"NAME"]', xml ).text()); }); </script> </head> <body> <xml id="aaa" style="display: none;"> <point srsName="geographic"> <coordinates> -71.385697,42.636016 </coordinates> </point> <feature typeName="country"> <description> Country </description> <property typeName="NAME"> United States </property> <property typeName="CAPITAL"> Washington DC </property> <property typeName="CONTINENT"> North America </property> <property typeName="DISTANCE_TO_POINT" typeUnits="feet"> 0 </property> </feature> </xml> </body> </html> _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list [email protected] http://jquery.com/discuss/
