do you have a way to externally test the xpath expression into your html doc? I use Xselerator. If you don't post the sample html and I can verify the path is returning a nodelist.
code looks correct.

I can parse it and do document.selectSingleNode("/"); and when I print that, I get the whole file. But any other xpath expressions return nothing. Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? b ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
