Retrieving XML attributes...

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

I am reading the following XML structure, using -
XPATH: "//root/node1[@value]/node2":

HTML

<root>
  <node1 value="abc">
    <node2 value="def" />
    <node2 value="ghi" />
    <node2 value="jkl" />
  </node1>
</root>

I have to use data from "node1" if the data from "node2" satisfies certain conditions.
If the conditions for "node2" information are met, how do I access the "node1" attribute?

Where are you doing this? With XSLT, C#, JavaScript?
