[thelist] XPATH woes

[John.Bedard at ngc.com]

Don't think you can do this with a single statement. However, this should do it...

<xsl:for-each select="/bobtypes/bob">
	<xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
</xsl:for-each>

Also here is a decent quick reference for XPATH (among others) at this site, downloadable in PDF format: http://www.deepx.com/resources/quickref/

Hi

Looking for plain English help for this issue.  I want to return a list of
all the bob id's in the xml below.

<bobtypes>
    <bob id="1"></bob>
    <bob id="2"></bob>
    <bob id="3"></bob>
</bobtypes>

to return "1,2,3"

Is there any XPATH to do this?  Do you have any really good XPATH links to
teach a novice.
