Hi all,
I have the following XML sample data:
<items>
<item id="a"/>
<item id="b"/>
<item id="c"/>
<item id="d"/>
<item id="e"/>
<item id="f"/>
</items>
and a search requirement to select nodes starting with id="a" passing id="c"
with anything in between and ending in "f" but must not pass through "d".
Thus, the above sample is not a match. Here is a sample that is a match:
<items>
<item id="a"/>
<item id="b"/>
<item id="b"/>
<item id="e"/>
<item id="c"/>
<item id="e"/>
<item id="f"/>
</items>
I am not sure how to write the XPATH expression to filter on the "must not
pass through "d" requirement. For example,
/items/item[(_at_)id="a"]/following-sibling::item[(_at_)id="c"]/following-sibling::ite
m[(_at_)id != "d"]/following-sibling::item[(_at_)id="f"]
doesn't work as "e" is picked up.
Thanks,
Ken
