I am returning XML data from the Yahoo GeoPlanet web service using HttpWebRequest.
I am loading the XML using
XPathDocument doc = new XPathDocument(HttpWebResponse.GetResponseStream()) Next comes:
XPathNavigator nav = doc.CreateNavigator(); If I do nav.Select('places'); or nav.Select('/places'); or nav.Select('//places');, nothing gets returned!
But if I do nav.select('/*');, I get the node and doing node.Name returns places?
I know nothing about the format of the Yahoo data but I do know that the most common misstake with C# and XPath is forgetting to add the relevant namespaces to your ‘NamespaceManager’ have a look here http://mydotnet.wordpress.com/2008/05/29/worlds-smallest-xml-xpath-tutorial/
