If I recall correctly, if you want to use paths in XPath queries then you need to escape the path segments according to ISO9075 rules. For your referenced, there is a brief section about that on the wiki at [1].
Also, there is a utility class in jackrabbit that can do the ISO9075 path encoding for you at [2] that you may utilize. 1. http://jackrabbit.apache.org/archive/wiki/JCR/EncodingAndEscaping_115513396.html 2. http://jackrabbit.apache.org/api/trunk/org/apache/jackrabbit/util/ISO9075.html I hope that helps.
