Hi,
With the following xml:
<Root>
<Keys>
<Client id="abc">
<a />
<!-- a /-->
<b />
</Client>
</Keys>
</Root>
XPath: "Root/Keys/Client[(_at_)id="abc"]/ descendant-or-self::node()"
selects 4 nodes
XPath: "Root/Keys/Client[(_at_)id="abc"]/ descendant-or-self::comment()"
selects 1 node
XPath: "Root/Keys/Client[(_at_)id="abc"]/ descendant-or-self::text()"
selects 0 nodes.
Please can someone explain to me why the last xpath doesn't
select 3 nodes.
Because you have whitespace stipping turned on. It the whitespace was
preserved, the first expression should return 8 and the third one 4.
I would like to select the 3 nodes <Client>, <a /> and <b />.
Root/Keys/Client[(_at_)id="abc"]/descendant-or-self::*
