http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14185 XPathAPI.selectNodeList() fails for 'contains()' attribute expression ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-20 21:18 ------- Instead of //*[contains(@*,'Xavier')] you probably wanted //*[contains(@first,'Xavier') or contains(@last,'Xavier')] which doesn't generalize to "any attribute" but I suspect that there is only a limited set of attributes that you need to check. You might also consider //@*[contains(.,'Xavier')]/.. which may be amenable to better optimizations. (Don't expect snappy retrieval when you have to search the whole tree.) In XSLT 2.0, you'll be able to use a quantified expression for this purpose.
