Simple xpath question

Question

I'm thinking this is a very simple xpath question .. I'm just not sure why my xpath isn't working.

Here's what my XML looks like

<A>
  <B>foo</B>
</A>

<C>
  <A>
    <B>foo</B>
  </A>
</C>

Now .. I want to grab all "A" elements which contain a "B" with contained text "foo".

Answer 1

//A[B[text()='foo']]

• //A matches all As
• //A[B] that have a B as a child
• //A[B[text()='foo']] which contains foo as text.
