this is what I want…

Assuming I’m trying to get at the value of ‘B’

<tree> <nodea> <nodeb> A=foo; B=bar; C=goo; </nodeb> </nodea> </tree> 

the following is magical syntax which would make sense… I’m looking for something comparable that actually works 🙂

string = './nodea/nodeb/[ REGEX( 'B=(.*?);' ) ]/ $1' 

Is there anything like this in any java xpath library?

    XPath 2.0 adds regular expressions. Something like this ought to do what you want, I think:

    fn:replace(./nodea/nodeb, '.*B=(.*?);.*', '$1')
