Hi,

I'm not sure what to think of this issue. The thing is that you are trying to run an xpath-expression on an invalid XML document (valid XML documents must have a root element!). I believe that an exception should be thrown if you try to select nodes using xpath on such documents (but not a NPE which is the case now).

I think you should try to avoid doing xpath evaluations on such documents...

regards,
Maarten

Hi,

I upgraded to RC1 but I had to revert back to previous final version, because there 
were

issues with selectNode (jaxen respectively).

I think the issue is following:

Document doc = DocumentHelper.createDocument();
Node node = doc.selectSingleNode("/data");

(simplified, selectSingleNode is part of method, that is called either on empty or 
existing document).
