Now, if I understand you well, you want every D/C, for which the first ancestor from a given list of ancestors (the list of elements defining D and its child C as descendents) to be "A" and nothing else. Then this is returned by: //D/C[name(ancestor::*[name()='A' or name()='F'][1])='A'] Here I'm supposing that "A" and "F" are the only two elements, for which "D" with child "C" have been defined in the schema. In case there are more such elements defining D/C and their names are provided as (e.g.) space-delimited list $listOfDefiningEls, then this more general expression will be: //D/C[name(ancestor::*[contains($listOfDefiningEls, concat(' ', name()))][1])='A'] Dimitre Novatchev. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
