However, not a good idea to have a child node be the same name as the
parent node (though it's OK in the sense it that won't screw up Xpath).

Would you believe my problem was I had product/products instead of product/products ?!

Sheesh...

Thanks for the help.

Can I have some general XML help too please? :> Does this XML file make sense, is it well formed?

<root>
        <clients>
                <client name="Borgo di Colleoli">
                        <sector>Property</sector>
                        <discipline>Direct Mail</discipline>
                        <discipline>Advertising</discipline>
                </client>
                <client name="Royal Bank of Scotland">
                        <sector>Finance</sector>
                        <discipline>Interactive Design</discipline>
                        <discipline>Strategy</discipline>
                </client>
        </clients>
        <sectors>
                <sector name="Property">
                        <client>Borgo di Colleoli</client>
                        <discipline>Direct Mail</discipline>
                        <discipline>Advertising</discipline>
                        <discipline>Channel and Sales</discipline>
                        <discipline>Interactive Design</discipline>
                </sector>
        </sectors>
        <disciplines>
                <discipline name="Direct Mail">
                        <sector>Property</sector>
                        <client>Borgo di Colleoli</client>
                </discipline>
        </disciplines>
</root>

I know I'm in danger of repeating my first mistake by doing something like client/clients instead of clients/client - but I can't think of another way to organise it.

Observant readers may recognise this as an xml sample of my matrix/ relationships questions from a few days ago :>
