/root/location/address[3] should theoretically work.
Dunno if dom4j has the latest build of jaxen integrated into the distribution. There used to be a problem with proximity predicates that would cause that path to not work. You can download a nightly build of jaxen (or 1.0-beta-8) and replace your jaxen-dom4j.jar and jaxen-core.jar and see if it works better. -bob On Mon, 4 Feb 2002, Frank Walinsky wrote: > Is it possible to write an XPATH statement that will directly access the 3rd > instance of element "address" given: > <root> > <location> > <address>abc</address> > <address>def</address> > <address>ghi</address> > </location> > </root> > > Any help would be appreciated.
