Hi,

Does anyone know how can I retrieve the value for an
attribute of an element through an XPath Query...
using the Xindice XML:DB API?

For example suppose that I have the following element somewhere
in the xml document in Xindice:

<example shape="circle" color="red">
 
I use the following XPATH query to retrieve all "example"
elements with color "red":

//[EMAIL PROTECTED]'red']

This works, but how do I get to the value of the shape attribute?

Alternatively I tried using the following XPATH query:

//[EMAIL PROTECTED]'red']/@shape

This should actually return the value of the attribute, but it
does not return anything as a ResourceSet...

Any ideas?
