Couple of things here, Tony.
1) You can "chain" xpaths together.
2) Learn all of the Xpaths Axes (sp?)!
In this case, you could grab the objectID of the node element with an objectID of
2134 like this:
//node[@objectid=2134]/parent::node
Notice the reference to the exact node, and then a reference to the "parent"
axis, asking for a "node" element.
Hope this helps.

Hi, I'm trying to get some XPath to work with respect to a navigation tree.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<tree>
<node objectid="3456" title="Informationa">
<node objectid="2134" title="Contact" />
<node objectid="5656" title="Top 1.2" />
<node objectid="5672" title="Top 1.3" />
<node objectid="123" title="Top 1.4" />
<node objectid="8357" title="Top 1.5" />
</node>
<node objectid="9834" title="Banks" circuit="banks" />
<node objectid="2245" title="Corporates" circuit="corporates">
<node objectid="45688" title="Top 3.1" />
<node objectid="9567" title="Top 3.2" />
<node objectid="4633" title="Top 3.3" />
</node>
<node objectid="1554" title="Managers" />
<node objectid="6734" title="Library" />
</tree>
I can use Xpath to return all the child nodes within a node using
//node[@objectid="3"]
However, how can I do this in reverse? How can I retrieve the node that is the
parent of a particular node? How can I get the objectid of the parent of 2134?
Any help you could share would be great!
Thanks
Tony
