Hi, following xpath fails in compile method() giving parsing error (Unexpected colon at start of token) xpath - [code]/:aaa/:bbb/:ccc[/code] xml - [code] ddd [/code] Same xpath works fine with xalan xpath processor. Is this issue with saxon 9.3?

The expression is invalid and Saxon is right to reject it. It's invalid both in XPath 1.0 and in 2.0.

Thanks for the reply. Even i was of opinion that syntax here is not correct, not sure why xalan processes this. Thanks for conforming this.
