I thought to spare you the full 20 mb file and give you just the
relevant bits. May the xml gods forgive me.

Turns out you are right - I had been using oxygen's xpath evaluator
and it kept returning the whole node rather than the attribute value I
wanted, and I perhaps foolishly trusted to that. It turns out a
different bug in my working code prevented me from getting the value
to display, and between the one and the other I had concluded my xpath
was bad. But now it's all good.

Thanks for the help!
