How do I call 2 XML attributes with Global Variable.

Hello,

let me explain my problem :

I use XML on my project.

[quote:2r052iec]<story>

<line id="01">hello</line>

<line id="02">I love Construct</line>

<line id="03">But I'm a noob</line>

</story>

I call line "id" with this xpath expression using a global variable :

XML.StringValue("/story/line—/text()")

Here an exemple made by korbaach few days ago : http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fi%20...%207337387723

It works great. Perfect !

NOW MY PROBLEM :

I want to do the same, but with 2 XML attributes :

[quote:2r052iec]<story>

<line id="01" name ="Cat">hello i'm Cat</line>

<line id="01" name ="Dog">hello i'm Dog</line>

<line id="02" name ="Cat">Cat loves Construct</line>

<line id="02" name ="Dog">Dog loves Construct</line>

</story>

And I want to call line using both attributes, "id" and "name" with two differents global variable :

XML.StringValue("/story/line——/text()")

And it's not working. And I don't know why.

I don't think it's a xml synthax error, when I try to call directly "id" and "name" without Global Variable, it works fine

XML.StringValue("/story/line——/text()") => OK

I've tried to make it clear, but not easy to explain, hope you can understand me and please tell me if you have an idea of what i'm doing wrong !

Thank you ^^

EDIT :

here a Capx of my problem :

If the global variable is a text I don't think there is a need for the extra "

Try if this works:

XML.StringValue("/story/line——/text()")

If the global variable is a text I don't think there is a need for the extra "

Try if this works:

XML.StringValue("/story/line——/text()")

Thx for helping me.

Still can't make it work.

I've made a little capx if someone want to take a look :

http://www.vintehin.fr/construct/xml_test.capx

old: XML.StringValue("/story/line—[@name="&Name&"/text()") new: XML.StringValue("/story/line——/text()")

To treat the Line variable as an integer, make sure there are no single-quotes (so you don't need to prefix it with a zero), otherwise it would have to be Text. For text however you do need the single-quotes. You were missing the single quotes and the end square-bracket around Name.

This one is actually working when I try:

XML.StringValue("/story/line——/text()")

Very unexpected, but the one with double quotes isn't?

Actually, you should always have double-quotes around XML attributes. So the query should look like this :

XML.StringValue("/story/line[@id="""&Line&"""][@name="""&Name&"""]/text()")[/code:1xgrz275]

It's working !

Thanks all of you, it was a double-quotes error indeed !
