RE:  Pattern question: first child of first descendant
Hi,

I'm going blind (before I read Mike's and David's contributions :-)

How about

entry[. is ancestor::table/descendant::entry[1]]/*[1][self::title|self::para]

?

One question is whether by "first title or para child" you mean "first child, if a title or a para". In other words, if you have

<entry>
  <title/>
  <para/>
</entry>

do you match both or just the title? My pattern matches just the title.

Cheers,
Wendell
