I am attempting to use the standalone xpath api since it will work with my current Java level 1.4 However, evaluating any xpath expression other than the root "." returns an empty list. Here is a bit of my code. import net.sf.saxon.sxpath.*; import javax.xml.transform.Source; StringReader reader = new StringReader(<my xml document as a string>); parser.parse(new InputSource(reader)); document = parser.getDocument(); //SAXON CODE XPathEvaluator xpe = new XPathEvaluator(); XPathExpression xps = xpe.createExpression("//IdValue"); Source source = new DOMSource(document); List results = xps.evaluate(source); There are IdValue elements in the document so these should be returned in the list, correct? any help would be appreciated!
