Hi Alan, > Am I using name() incorrectly in the following xpath? We are > developing a Microsoft .Net application and the processor is telling > me it is an invalid xpath.

You have: $emailData/data/[name()=$pSite]/reply_to I think that you're trying to get the element child of the data element whose name is the same as the value of the $pSite variable, in which case you need: $emailData/data/*[name()=$pSite]/reply_to ^ Predicates (expressions in []s) filter some set of nodes, which implies that you need to select the nodes for them to filter ;) Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
