Drew said the following on 09/29/2010 02:03 PM:
<cfset step1 = XMLSearch(returnXML,
"//*[local-name()='StringBarCodes']").get(0)>
<cfset step2 = XMLSearch(step1, "//*[local-name()='Type']").get(0).XmlText>
Your XPath isn't quite right. The XPath/XML is case sensitive so:
"//*[local-name()='StringBarCodes']"
Needs to be (notice the lowercase "c") or it won't match anything in
your XML package:
"//*[local-name()='StringBarcodes']"
Also, this expression:
"//*[local-name()='Type']"
Uses the local-name() XPath function. This returns the first node found
which in this case is the COMMON_2D (it's the first node with v9:Type
from the root of document). This XPath is *not* searching from the
point found in step1. This is the case because you use the root //*
directive which means it searches from the base node of the XML. XML
structures in CFML are passed by reference because they are underlaid by
Java classes. At this point, step1 is merely a pointer / reference to a
section in the main XML node. You'll need to use the current node
directive of "." before your //* in order to reference from the match
found in step1 or XPath looks from the root of the XML pacet.
This works:
<cfhttp url="http://www.technicalsynergy.com/XMLSample/fedExSample.xml"; />
<cfset returnXml = XmlParse(cfhttp.fileContent) />
<cfset step1 = XMLSearch(returnXML,
"//*[local-name()='StringBarcodes']").get(0) />
<cfset step2 =
XMLSearch(step1,".//*[local-name()='Type']").get(0).xmlText />
<cfdump var="#variables.step1#"/>
<cfdump var="#variables.step2#"/>
