Hi, sorry if this has been answered a hundred times but I haven't had much luck finding this in the archives. For this xml: <xtf:snippets> <xtf:snippet score="100" rank="1" hitNum="5"> MS Clark Library, University of <xtf:hit> <xtf:term>California</xtf:term> </xtf:hit>. 40 Albion Street Broadstairs | </xtf:snippet> </xtf:snippets> ... I want to write an xpath that will select just the numeric value of 5 for the attribute hitNum, based on its being a sibling attribute of rank="1". However, I can't get any closer than selecting the whole xtf:snippet element. This are a couple ways of accessing that inadequate result: /xtf:snippets/xtf:snippet[@rank='1']/attribute::hitNum /xtf:snippets/xtf:snippet[@rank='1']/@hitNum I can't seem to get it to cough up just the 5. It would seem trivial, but neither reference books nor any website I have found addressed it. Any clues please, thanks. .d
