Not seeing anything regarding your need for the "j:" namespace.  Might that be
interfering with your expectations somehow?

Popping your XML and XPath in oXygen works for me, provided I modify it
slightly for the context in which I am running it.


//array[@key='header']/map[string[@key='key'][. = 'Content-Type']]/string[@key
= 'value']

returns

application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Subject: [xsl] What is the correct xpath?

I have this XML

<test>
    <string key="method">POST</string>
    <array key="header">
         <map>
             <string key="key">Authorization</string>
             <string key="value">Basic
{{solutionAppID:solutionAppSecret}}</string>
         </map>
         <map>
            <string key="key">Content-Type</string>
            <string
key="value">application/x-www-form-urlencoded</string>
         </map>
    </array>
   <map key="body">
       <string key="mode">urlencoded</string>
    </map>
</test>

I'm processing the value in <string key="mode">urlencoded</string>. I
need to marry this with the <string key="value"> in the <map> with
<string key="key">Content-Type</string>.

I get to the right area with this
"../array[@key='header']/map/string[@key='key']" I'm stuck on how to now
match the value "Content-Type" and then find  the content of <string
key="value">application/x-www-form-urlencoded</string>

So something like this which isn't working
../j:array[@key='header']/j:map/j:string[@key='key']['Content-type']/followin
g-sibling::j:string[@key='value']

This just returns Content-type, what am I doing wrong?
