UNIQUE List of nodes attributes that have a particular value

2003-04-19 12:42:03
I am trying to find all the attributes in an XML document that contain a particular value.

Given the following data...

<ExampleData>
        <NodeA name="foo"/>
        <NodeA name="larry"/>
        <NodeA name="foo"/>
        <NodeB author="foo"/>
        <NodeB author="larry"/>
        <NodeC reporter="foo"/>
</ExampleData>

I would like to write an XPATH statement that returns this:

        <NodeA name="foo"/>
        <NodeB author="foo"/>
        <NodeC reporter="foo"/>

Note that I am only returning UNIQUE instances of element/attribute combinations with the attribute value.

Is this possible using XPATH?

Thanks!

Larry
