Subject: Re: Question for the XPath and DOM folks >Than there can only be one answer to Dare's question, which is what I gave. Let's explore your answer then. So if I have a W3C XML Document Object Model (DOM) implementation containing the XML <foo> bar <![CDATA[ baz ]]> quux </foo> and query it with the following XPath //text() I should get back a single text node containing "bar baz quux". So a few questions from an application programmer 1.) Is this text node a DOM text node or some DOM incompatible XPath node? 2.) Does this node have a parent? If so is its parent a DOM node? If so who are its children and is the returned node one of its children? Based on your answers to these questions I may have one or two more. -- Uche Ogbuji Fourthought, Inc. http://uche.ogbuji.net <http://uche.ogbuji.net> http://4Suite.org <http://4Suite.org> http://fourthought.com <http://fourthought.com> Track chair, XML/Web Services One Boston: http://www.xmlconference.com/ <http://www.xmlconference.com/> The many heads of XML modeling - http://adtmag.com/article.asp?id=6393 <http://adtmag.com/article.asp?id=6393> Will XML live up to its promise? - http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/li <http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/li> brary/x-think11.html
