The xpath statement //media[not(@type=preceding-sibling::media/@type)]

On

returns 3 results.

The same statement on

returns 2 results.

I think it should return 2 results in both cases.

This is as expected.

In the first case, none of the elements have a @type that is the same as its previous sibling. So the negation of the condition is true for all 3 of them.

In the second case, only the second element has the same @type as its previous sibling. Again the condition is negated so is true for the other two.

Status: Invalid

Thank you for your response. Now I actually feel kind of stupid for even posting this. Again thank you for pointing it out.
