[xml-dev] XPath question (in .NET)

[Paul Popiel <PaulP@advancedengine.com>]

Hi,

Just want to get an xpath expression that basically works like a search
function for the xml.

e.g. want to search for the text "sample text" and return the XmlNodeList of
all element that contain that text (much like searching the OuterXml of the
element, excluding child nodes).


tried things such as: 
//*[contains(string(current()), searchText)]

but that doesnt work (throws some sort of XPath exception)


any help would be appreciated, thanks

Paul
