BAD MSG: separate document, so XPath can only be used on each collection at a time. ross collection querying would be very useful, and would allow us to organise data more logically into multiple collections (for example one collection of User documents, one collection for auditing info etc...) Does anyone know if this can be done??
Thanks for any answer in advance, Peter -----Original Message----- From: Michael Cortez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17 May 2002 01:51 To: [email protected] Subject: Query across collections? Is it possible to query across collections with xpath? i.e. root -- collection1 -- -- doc1 -- -- -- <node>1</node> -- -- -- <node>2</node> -- collection2 -- -- doc2 -- -- -- <node>3</node> -- -- -- <node>4</node> -- -- doc3 -- -- -- <node>5</node> -- -- -- <node>6</node> I would like to get all 6 node elements, from all three documents, from both collections. To get the nodes right now I have to do (from Xindice): xmldb:xindice://localhost:4080/db/collection1/#/node xmldb:xindice://localhost:4080/db/collection2/#/node I'd like to do something like: xmldb:xindice://localhost:4080/db/*/#/node Is that possible? -- Mike
