Re: [Htmlunit-user] getFirstByXPath help needed

[ricky b. <ric...@gm...>]

Hello Laura,

If you do getFirstByXpath(".//div[contains(@class, 'item-chart')]") on
report-item node then you will get the first div of under the report-item
node.

When you try to find the node by using '//', this will always try to find
the node from the root html element, and when you try to find the xPath
using './/' then it will search from the current node (in your case
report-item).

Thanks,
Deb
