Hi,

I am tried to use XPath expression in TclDom.

I tried this expression //*[string(.)='some text']

It gives me error saying the function not yet
implemented.

I then tried //*[ . = 'some text']

It also gives message that axis "self" is not supproted.

Please look into the matter.

Thanks

Hello,

I've had similar problems last week, and began toying with
the XPath support in the TclDOM pure Tcl version.
Based on /tclxml/tcldom/library/dom.tcl version 1.23,
I've added support for a few new XPath features:
o Node selection by index. Ex: //name[2]
o Node selection by type. Ex: //name[text()]
o Selection of last node. Ex: //name[last()]
o The parent axis. Ex: ../@price
o Comparisons on attributes. Ex: //name[@price<100]
(Still a long way from full XPath compliance, but these I
couldn't live without:-)

I'd like to contribute it to the project.
How can this be done?
