Matthew,
Thanks for the help.
By the way,
xindice xpath_query -c /db/testing -q "/data/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'1']"
works, but
xindice xpath_query -c /db/testing -q "/data/[EMAIL PROTECTED] = '1']"
will get an error message:
= was unexpected at this time.
Any idea why the white space matters? Also, is there any plan for returning
attributes?
Again, appreciate your help.
Lixin

and I forgot - the query should be: "/data/[EMAIL PROTECTED] = '1']"
