I do not know of any, and the official list of implementations doesn’t include one either. An alternative – of course less performant than a native implementation – would be XQIB which is an XQuery implementation in JavaScript. XPath 2.0 is fully included as a subset in XQuery 1.0, so you will be able to … Read more
Use setNodeValue. First, get a NodeList, for example: myNodeList = (NodeList) xpath.compile(“//MyXPath/text()”) .evaluate(myXmlDoc, XPathConstants.NODESET); Then set the value of e.g. the first node: myNodeList.item(0).setNodeValue(“Hi mom!”); More examples e.g. here. As mentioned in two other answers here, as well as in your previous question: technically, XPath is not a way to “update” an XML document, but … Read more
Short answer: use XPath local-name(). Like this: xPathFactory.newXPath().compile(“//*[local-name()=’requestURL’]/text()”); will return /CAMERA/Streaming/status Or you can implement a NamespaceContext that maps namespaces names and URIs and set it on the XPath object before querying. Take a look at this blog article, Update: the article is down, you can see it on webarchive Solution 1 sample: XPath xpath … Read more
Here’s a slightly shorter solution. Maximum: /foo/bar/@score[not(. < ../../bar/@score)][1] Minimum: /foo/bar/@score[not(. > ../../bar/@score)][1] I’ve edited the predicate so that it’s applicable to any sequence of bar, even if you decide to change the path. Note that parent of attribute is the element to which it belongs. If embedding these queries in XML files like XSLT … Read more
You can check if an element exits or not by using bool isElementDisplayed = driver.findElement(By.xpath(“element”)).isDisplayed() Remember, findElement throws an exception if it doesn’t find an element, so you need to properly handle it. In one of my applications, I handled an exception by checking the element in a separate function: private bool IsElementPresent(By by) { … Read more
/Obj/Name/text() is the XPath to return the content of the CDATA markup. What threw me off was the behavior of the Value property. For an XMLNode (DOM world), the XmlNode.Value property of an Element (with CDATA or otherwise) returns Null. The InnerText property would give you the CDATA/Text content. If you use Xml.Linq, XElement.Value returns … Read more
By padding the @class value with leading and trailing spaces, you can test for the presence of ” foo ” and ” bar ” and not worry about whether it was first, middle, or last, and any false positive hits on “food” or “barren” @class values: /bookstore/book[contains(concat(‘ ‘,@class,’ ‘),’ foo ‘) and not(contains(concat(‘ ‘,@class,’ ‘),’ … Read more
An XPath expression starting with / is always referring to the root element. Look here for the syntax and some useful sample queries If you want to select the root element itself, simply use /<element name> or /*
Your xpath syntax is wrong – you don’t need the inner set of square brackets – but even if you fix this: //button[@type, ‘submit’ and text()=’New’] it won’t select what you want it to. The problem is that the “New” is not text contained directly in the button element but is inside a child span … Read more
You are so close to answering this yourself that I am somewhat reluctant to answer it for you. However, the following XPath should provide what you want (provided the source is XHTML, of course). //img[@class=”photo-large”]/@src For further tips, check out W3 Schools. They have excellent tutorials on such things and a great reference too.
