RE: [Flashcoders] XPath Error...
You are correct. Yes, it allows you to query if you nest the child node.

But the xml structure is not consistent (unless there was a typo). product colors clr/clr clr/clr /colors /product product colors clr/clr /colors colors clr/clr /colors /product So, if i'm not mistaken, this //product[colors[clr= 'green']] will only work for the second part (multiple 'colors' nodes), not the first one. regards, Muzak - Original Message - From: Chris Wilcox [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Flashcoders mailing list flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Thursday, November 03, 2005 2:30 PM Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] XPath Error...

Re: [Flashcoders] XPath Error...
his XML is fine, its either the chattyfig server or our email clients stripping his xml.. //product[colors[clr='red']] will only return results if the first clr child node of the colors tag has a value of red. the correct syntax to return any clr child of colors that matches red would be : //product[colors/clr[.='red']] but neither the xfactor studio xpath parser or the mx.xpath.xpathAPI classes return anything for that xpath query. I tested it in internet explorer and it works fine. grant - Original Message - From: Chris Wilcox [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Flashcoders mailing list flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: 11/3/05 10:00 AM Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] XPath Error...
