Hi all,

Is this supposed to work in author actions as well? I have tried to 
define an action using 

ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.operations.ShowElementDocumentationOperation 

with the URL pattern parameter:

http://www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&q=${xpath_eval('ancestor-or-self::*:TEI/*:teiHeader/*:fileDesc/*:titleStmt/*:title[type="main"]')}

but the ${xpath_eval()} is just passed as-is to google.

Thanks for any insight,

Andreas
