    uComponents GetNodesByXPath lowercase comparison

    Hi guys,

    I'm using the uComponents-function GetNodesByXPath and I want to search in all nodes for a property with a value that matches my variable. My variable is always lowercase, but the propertyvalue isn't. How can I compare it case-insensitive.

    I thought that something like this would work

    For Each Node In uComponents.Core.uQuery.GetNodesByXPath("//* [@isDoc and Exslt.ExsltStrings:lower-case(merk)='" + merk + "']")

    But this gives the following exception

    Namespace Manager or XsltContext needed. This query has a prefix, variable, or user-defined function.

    I don't know how I can add a namespacemanager/xslcontext in this function. I hope someone can help me,

    Jeffrey

    Hi Jeffrey,

    Unfortunatelly you can't add/change the XsltContext to use custom namespaces/extension-methods ... (if there is a way to do it, I'd love to know!)

    The alternate option is to use native XPath functions - in your case the "translate()" function.

    uComponents.Core.uQuery.GetNodesByXPath("//*[@isDoc and translate(merk, \"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ\", \"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz\") = '" + merk.ToLower() + "']")

    Cheers, Lee.
