  • Thread-topic: Help parsing XML file

My problem is that the XPath function doesn't seem to respond correctly with
an XMLReference. I don't get a reference, therefore I can't turn the
reference into text.

I can get my XML parser in TextMate to give me the correct result using the
XPath  /FMPDSORESULT/ROW/ValueColor01 but I can't get the XMLLib to respond
in kind.
