What do you mean by "...save the absolute path..."?
Save a reference? Save a string representation of the ancestor chain? What do you want to do?

Hello, I have a very large XML. I have a function which reads the XML and finds something that I am looking for ( lets say data123 ) Once I find it I wish to save the absolute path to it ... Is that possible ? For example: I wish to save: myXml.books[0].book.covers.cover[2].items[2].data123 However I can not build the above statement since the XML is dynamic. I wish for the function to return the absolute path of the item after I find it ... Thanks in advance, Sean.
