Enhancement for xpath to resolve into an attribute. #76

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

An xpath statement can be used to access content in a node, eg:

foo/bar/baz can access the text content of

<foo>
  <bar>
    <baz>this is my content</baz>
  </bar>
</foo>

But sometimes we want to access content in an attribute, such as:

foo/bar@baz to access

<foo>
  <bar baz="this is my content"/>
</foo>

Currently using an '@' in xpath throws an error.

Sure, I'll have a look into doing this for you :)

Hi, I suspect this plugin already does this for you. Change your xpath to: 
foo/bar/@baz (note the extra slash).

Please let me know if this is okay and I'll close this issue.

No response and suspect existing functionality exists - closing.
