Thanks André for your answer. It would be great if we had support in laszlo for some additional functions of xpath at least. Functions like starts-with, ends-with, contains, matches, replace and number expressions like /bookstore/[EMAIL PROTECTED] > 300]/@title.
What is the state of this in Laszlo ? Some developer of laszlosystems or openlaszlo is actually working for add better xpath support ?
