I have subscripted elements like: <element> <child changed= "no"/> <child changed= "yes"/> <child changed = "no"/> </element> When I get a nodeRefList of all changed child elements using xpath, I will get element 2. I want to update the same element in another document. How can I find the index of the element node? thanks...charlie --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
