Re: Trying to get XQL to work

["Bart Alcorn" <bart.alcorn@gmail.com>]

The "programme" node is a child of the "radio" node, so you need to drill
down the tree in order to find it.
There are two major ways to do this:

1. use the descendant operator ("//"), which will find the target node
anywhere in the tree
i.e. tXML.xql("//programme")

2. set a base node, and then query it
// no error checking here at all for simplicity's sake!
dim radioNode as XMLNode
radioNode = xdoc.xql( "radio" ).Item(0)   // no error checking to see if the
item exists!!
// radioNode is now an XMLNode

dim programmeList as XMLNodeList
programmeList = radioNode.xql( "programme" )

// bare minimal error checking
dim programme as XMLNode
if programmeList.Length > -1 then programme = programmeList.Item(0)

Hope this helps!
