Hi Andrew, 

Thanks in advance, it works.
I have tried to use contains without single quote, and there will give out 
error.

No, nothing wrong with you, I see exactly the same behaviour.

Modifying the query to:
 xindice xpath -v -c /db/test -q '/person[contains(fname,"Paul")]'
... gets the result you are after.

I suspect there's some bug in your xpath, although it looks sane to me.
