I use libxml2 in C application to parse XML files.

I get an error when I search for XPath with special character ‘$’.

Here my code :

xmlXPathExpression("//mytag/foo$");

And I get error “Invalid expression”.

I tried to encode speical characters like this :

xmlXPathExpression("//mytag/foo$");

But I get same error.

Any help ?
Thanks.

    I do not see $ listed as a valid character in element name: XML 1.0.
