Definitely, I agree with you. Xpointer is PAINFUL, and XPATH is very easy compared it. And we, too, use Oxygen.

XPATH is an incredible tool. If you plan on using xml more, its something you should learn. Playing with xpath in witango, or other code environments, is not very easy. What I do, is I use an EXCELLENT xml editor called oxygen. I can load the xml in it, and I can enter xpath statements to play and test and see the results of my query. Its a real good way to learn and try out queries on real xml. I am sure there are other xml tools out there like this, but I really like oxygen.

Robert,



Lightning got my DSL modem at home so I couldn’t respond to you last night. But your snippet was just what the doctor ordered. I tested it this morning and it works great. I need to do some research on XPath as I don’t understand your xpath elements, but I figured it out enough to get it to work for my app.



Thanks.



Steve

Did that help? I just realized I don't use xpointer, but xpath, I don't use xpointer.

Check my tools site, www.bighead.net/tools.



There is a pdf about efficient webservices. Search for domtoarray. Something like that. I go over methods for efficiently turning doms into arrays. Its been a while since I was doing that, but I think it fits your situation.

Is there a way to get a 2 dimensional array with XPointer with the following DOM



<@assign request$ScopeDom value="<@dom value='

<webapp>

  <site domain="xxxcom">

   <scope_name>scope1</scope_name>

   <dsn_name>Cat1</dsn_name>

   <dsn_user>user1</dsn_user>

   <dsn_password>password1</dsn_password>

  </site>

  <site domain="yyycom">

   <scope_name>scope2</scope_name>

   <dsn_name>Cat2</dsn_name>

   <dsn_user>user2</dsn_user>

   <dsn_password>password2</dsn_password>

  </site>

</webapp>'>">



I get a one dimensional array with the following. I have tried other combinations with no success.



<@elementvalue object='request$ScopeDom' element='root().child (all).child(all)'>



Thanks
