Try `//*[@*[ contains(., 'string') ]]`. Note that if the string is user- specified you cannot simply use string concat to generate the expression since the string might contain the quote marks you are using. You can work around that by using a variable or by splitting the string and the concat function with appropriate quote marks as needed. Another way to write the expression would be `//@*[ contains(., 'string') ]/..`. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@h... · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
