Why does this XPath expression return true:
/FitnessCenter/Member[1]/MembershipFee/node() instance of text()
whereas this returns false:
//MembershipFee[1]/node() instance of text()
Both reference the node within the first MembershipFee element; so I
would think they should both return true.
If you have more than one element with one or more children
MembershipFee elements in your tree, then the second would be an
instance of text()* or text()+.
But you don't show your data, so I can't tell if this is your situation or not.
I hope this helps.
