Hi,
Can you perform a query with the boolean NOT operator? can anyuone give me
examples.
I have the query:
//mets [ /mets/agent/name='Gul Akbar' NOT /mets/role='Administrator' ]
Check out the XPath standard: it isn't a secret! :-
http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath
I think your example query would have more luck if re-phrased thus:
//mets[agent/name='Gul Akbar' and not(role='Administrator')]
Also is there any XPath that allows you to carry out phrase searching, or word
searches?
You have the contains() and starts-with() functions.
