Hi Joseph
This sounds like a namespace issue. Does your XML document look something
like this...
<foo xmlns="something">
<ENTRY>
...
</ENTRY>
</foo>
i.e. that the <ENTRY> elements are all in some namespace? If so, then this
is correct behaviour. To match elements in a namespace you must use either
the functions name(), local-name() and namespace-uri() to match nodes or use
namespace prefixes in your XPath expression.
e.g. you could use
//my:ENTRY
if you had bound the 'my' prefix to the namespace URI thats used in your XML
document.
