Hi Philips ,
I am doing the same but it works.
Say , eg. I want all documents under /cms/childfolder1 which have author
as "sushma", any of the following queries returns me the documents which
are authored by 'sushma'
* /jcr:root/cms/childfolder1//[EMAIL PROTECTED]:author='sushma']
* /jcr:root/cms/childfolder1/element(*,ps:document)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:author='sushma']
Is the space between your search string 'tag' + space + '1' a problem ?
Did you try testing it via eclipse Jackrabbit Viewer plugin ?

Hello everyone,
I am using jackrabbit to store "tags" that a user creates.
Given a structure (below) where each leaf node has an attribute of CONTENT_TYPE with a value of "Tag"
/myfolder/tag 1/Tag 1
/myfolder/tag 2/Tag 2
/myfolder/tag 3/Tag 3
My application needs to be able to query for what tags exist under a node path
e.g.
what tags are under /myfolder/tag 1?
what tags are usder /myfolder/?
My problem is that my xpath expression is not working for queries that pass the
tag parent in as a node to look down.
I have a tag with a node path of /myfolder/tag 1/Tag 1 , but xpath search for
tags in /myfolder/tag 1 fails to find any nodes.
This query will not find it:
/jcr:root/myfolder/tag 1//[EMAIL PROTECTED] = 'Tag']
This query does find it (but it is not restrictive enough, returns nodes in all
folders).
/jcr:root/myfolder//[EMAIL PROTECTED] = 'Tag']
Results
/myfolder/tag 1/Tag 1
/myfolder/tag 2/Tag 2
/myfolder/tag 3/Tag 3
/myfolder/tag 4/Tag 4
Is there a way to do a search in xpath that does children AND it's descendents?
Thanks!
