I was using XMLTask for parsing an midifiying an XML File but it did not 
work as expected.
The XML file im am parsing lhas the followin structure:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plugin xmlns="http://www.sun.com/schema/SPS";
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
       description="myplugin"
       name="myplugin"
       schemaVersion="5.2"
       vendor="Sun Microsystems "
       version="1.0"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.sun.com/schema/SPS plugin.xsd">

................

</plugin>


what I am trying to do ist to modify the "version" attribute in the 
<plugin> tag. But I cant locate it using XMLTask:
Here's my Ant snippet:

       <xmltask 
source="${plugin.jar.dir}/main/${plugin.descriptor.name}" 
dest="${plugin.content.dir}/${plugin.descriptor.name}">
           <attr path="/plugin" attr="version" value="${plugin.version}"/>
       </xmltask>

but this won't  change anything.

Next I tried to use wildcards:
       <xmltask 
source="${plugin.jar.dir}/main/${plugin.descriptor.name}" 
dest="${plugin.content.dir}/${plugin.descriptor.name}">
           <attr path="/*" attr="version" value="${plugin.version}"/>
       </xmltask>
This worked fine but I'm afraid this will also modify other occurences 
of verion attributes.
Can anybody tell me what's wrong with my first approach?

Regards

Edmund
