or condition in (Element)XPathAPI.selectSingleNode,

[Vallaru smitha]

Hi

i am extracting keywods from jsp using

node2=(Element)XPathAPI.selectSingleNode(rawDoc, "//meta[@name=\"keywords\"]");

but i want to check for keywords with "K" and "k". if else condition does not work as the first contidition fails sit goes to catch block.


Can any one please suggest if there is any way we could check

Thanks
smitha.

Yes, absolutely, just like you suggest, an "or" condition would do the trick. Was your question how to express "or" in XPath? Because you express "or" as "or" in XPath.

Or was your question something else?

Thanks Paul, I was trying with piping operator "||".

node2=(Element)XPathAPI.selectSingleNode(rawDoc, "//meta[@name=\"keywords\"]" or "//meta[@name=\"Keywords\"]");

I tried the above line but it failed.

Any suggestions....

node2=(Element)XPathAPI.selectSingleNode(rawDoc, "//meta[@name=\"keywords\"]" | "//meta[@name=\"Keywords\"]"); 

This will do it.
