Question

I am trying to match against ids stored as list element using XQuery.

For example,

<data>     <item>         <name>foo</name>         <intValues>1 2 3 4 5</intValues>     </item>     <item>         <name>bar</name>         <intValues>6 7 8 9 10</intValues>     </item> </data> 

is it possible to return items that include 3 in the intValues?

Answer 1

is it possible to return items that include 3 in the intValues?

This XPath expression selects exactly all item elements that have a ‘3’ as one of the list of values contained in their intValues child:

   /*/item['3' = tokenize(intValues, ' ')]
