------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Mar 1 09:35:30 +0000 2007 ------- I stumbled over the same bug using OOo macros (see: http://www.oooforum.org/ forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=53759) and did a bit of research. According to the DOM XPath specifications (see: http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level- 3-XPath/xpath.html#XPathExpression-evaluate) context node should be the node from where the expression is evaluated. This is also the (expected) behavior implemented in Xerces and MSXML. Looking into the source of the OOo implementation of the XPath evaluation (unoxml\source\xpath\xpathapi.cxx) and there into the 'eval' and 'selectNodeList' functions it is clear, that the evaluation of XPath expressions in the context of an element other than the root element is not possible as the function call for the evaluation is always done with the document node. Without any further investigation, the problem seems to be the usage of xmlXPathNewContext with accepts only a document node as parameter (http:// xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-xpath.html#xmlXPathNewContext). The returned context is a structure that also contains a 'node' member. Maybe it helps to set this 'node' member before calling xmlXPathEval. According to the mailing list for libxml this should work (see for example http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml/2006-October/msg00009.html). Hope this helps to implement this feature in the near future.
