Hi guys - before I prepare an example I wonder if anyone knows what I'm doing wrong off the top off thier heads... I've got an XML file like this ----------------------------- <?xml.....> <myns:items xmlns:myns="http://myworld.com/mypage";> <myns:item myattribute="1"> <myns:name>fred</myns:name> </myns:item> <myns:item> <myns:name>john</myns:name> </myns:item> </myns:items> ------------------------------ I'm using JDOM & Jaxen (latest downloads but I had the same problem with prior downloads) When I use Jaxen to get a nodelist using "//myns:item" it returns 2 nodes ok When I use "//myns:item[@myattribute='1']" I get 1 node (fred) OK When I use "//myns:item[not(@myattribute)]" I get 1 node (john) OK So far so good .. (I'm setting the NameSpace context correctly on the java XPATH object and the URIs are the same as in the XML file otherwise the above examples wouldn't have worked I guess) BUT when I try anything Xpath like "//myns:item[mysn:name='fred']" OR "//myns:item[contains(mysn:name,'fred')]" OR even "//myns:item[contains(text(mysn:name),'fred')]" etc it seems to fail hopelessly. I can provide an example but that more or less sums it all up. Either I'm doing something really wrong (and I've spent hours looking at it) or Jaxen doesnt like namespacey stuff inside '[...]'. Which I doubt... Any one got any clues ??? Cheers, ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Influence the future of Java(TM) technology.
