Hello
I have created XML Datasource with a query simmilar like in following topic: http://forums.asp.net/t/1258941.aspx/1?XPath+Contains+problem+
Unfortunately it always returns nothing. Can anyone tell me what is a source of this trouble? I am attaching xml structure and code behind
XML Structuture:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <Contactbook> <Contact Name="aaaaaa" Positon="" Mail="aaaaaaaaa"></Contact> </Contactbook>
Source Code:
if (txtSOSName.Text != "") { xmlSOSContactPeople.XPath = "/Contactbook[contains(./Contact/@Name,'" + txtSOSName.Text + "')]"; gridSOSContact.DataBind(); }

Hi, Try the below.
Since you are binding the contacts and you want to get the contacts whose name is eqal to the one entered in the text box.
if (txtSOSName.Text != "") { xmlSOSContactPeople.XPath = string.Format("/Contactbook/Contact[@Name='{0}']", txtSOSName.Text); gridSOSContact.DataBind(); }

This one will cause that Contact Name must be exactly like parameter. Instead I wolud like to use something like SQL LIKE (in case if somebody know only name etc.), so it requires usage of contains function.
That is not a solution to my problem
