XML.NodeCount broken? Says requires string not number

Problem Description

When I try to use different XPath expressions for XML.NodeCount it says it requires a string, not a number. But I entered a string!

Attach a Capx

It seems to be an C2 Editor bug and I can't add the action because it says it's a number.

Steps to Reproduce Bug

• Add XML.NodeCount(XPath) to an action like Set Text and enter a string for XPath.

Observed Result

Error message says it requires a string not a number even if a string is entered.

Affected Browsers

None, its an C2 editor issue

Operating System and Service Pack

latest Win 8.1 64 Bit

NodeCount returns a number, but you are trying to pass that to a Text parameter. That's what the message means. I can't see what action you're using though because you've covered it up and not provided a .capx, but I assume this is working correctly.

I know Ashley has already answered this post, but I have been looking at this function this afternoon and what you need to enter is, for example:

str(XML.NodeCount("//examplenode"))

just in case this makes it clearer...

Thank you very much. In another case the error said it needs to be converted with str() or int(). Since it was a different message I forgot to use the str() command.
