RE: XPath help
Also remember that you can have an entire path, not just one element, searched with the name() function: "/*[name()='PostalCodeNumber']/*[name=()'ChildElem1']" I may not have the exact syntax correct, but you should get the gist of it.

RE: Xpath Help
Yeah, XPath is very cool, from what I have seen. I just started playing with XPath yesterday while considering rebuilding one of my existing apps. I don't know if this is the main reason, but I love the ability to "break down" the XML into smaller chunks that are more-managable. I have not run into the situation, but I would guess XPath would come in handy when needing to pull, in a single step, similar child elements from different parents. Keep up the good fight!

In this case, you could grab the objectID of the node element with an objectID of 2134 like this: //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/parent::node Notice the reference to the exact node, and then a reference to the "parent" axis, asking for a "node" element.

Hi, I'm trying to get some XPath to work with respect to a navigation tree. I can use Xpath to return all the child nodes within a node using //[EMAIL PROTECTED]"3"] However, how can I do this in reverse? How can I retrieve the node that is the parent of a particular node? How can I get the objectid of the parent of 2134? Any help you could share would be great! Thanks Tony [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
