Question about an xpath depending on two xml nodes Hi,
in my case I've got the following XML document:
<doc>
<item>
<foo>1</foo>
<bar>a</bar>
</item>
<item>
<foo>2</foo>
<bar>b</bar>
</item>
</doc>
My question is, if it is possible to read out the value of a child if
another childnode has a specific value. In my example I want to read out
the value of the foo node when the value of the bar node is an 'a'. Is
this possible?
Thanks in advance
Martin

Yes, easily,
/doc/item[bar = 'a']/foo

yeah thanks. This is realy easy. I thought this is only possible with
attributes. I think I'm falling in love with xpaths.
Best regards
