I need to search for certain nodes in an XML document, modify the InnerXML property of those nodes, and then write the changes out to the file.

The 'results' element then has an arbitrary number of elements with the name 'result' When this is loaded into an XmlDocument it is easy to navigate the structure and see that this is exactly how things operate. I can write a recursive function...
Hello, today I stumbled upon a very interesting case (at least for me). I am messing around with Selenium and xPath and tried to get some elements, but got a strange behaviour: <div class="resultcontainer"> <div class="info"> <div class="title"> <a> some text </a> </div> </div> </div> <div cla...
I'll spare you the details because they would be needlessly confusing. Long story short, I'm using XSLT 1.0 to generate XSL documents, I'm trying to compare a variable to a literal string, and that string may contain quotes and apostrophes. For the sake of simplicity, let's say that this literal is composed of two characters: a quote fo...

I need to extract the document's "description" meta tag. The default way would be to use document.getElementsByTagName('META') and then iterate through the array - as found in: http://www.rgagnon.com/jsdetails/js-0070.html But I'm wondering if there's no other quicker, "one line of code" approach. I'm not familiar with xPath - but mayb...

I have been using Linq to XML for a few hours and while it seems lovely and powerful when it comes to loops and complex selections, it doesn't seem so good for situations where I just want to select a single node value which XPath seems to be good at. I may be missing something obvious here but is there a way to use XPath and Linq to XM...
