The problem is now that the second query applied to the + resulting nodes, returns me results of the whole Document. + + This is some samplecode: + + JTidyScraper myScraper = new + JTidyScraper("http://www.somehost.com/...../somefile.html";); + + Document myDocument = (Document)myScraper.getContent(); + + NodeList myNodeList = XPathAPI.selectNodeList(myDocument, + ".//form/p|.//form/blockquote/p"); + + for(int i=0; i < myNodeList.getLength(); i++){ + Node theOuterNode = myNodeList.item(i); + + //Here i got the problem that the query ".//p/a" is applied to the whole + Document instead of only the "theOuterNode" + //I would expect to get only nodes within the scope of "theOuterNode" + NodeList theInnerNodeList = + XPathAPI.selectNodeList(theOuterNode,".//p/a"); + + for(int j=0; j < theInnerNodeList.getLength(); j++){ + Node theInnerNode = theInnerNodeList.item(j); + } + } \ No newline at end of file
