xpath
I have an XML document which contains nodes like following:-
<a class="custom">test</a>
<a class="xyz"></a>
I was tryng to get the nodes for which class is NOT "Custom" and I wrote an expression like following:-
XmlNodeList nodeList = document.SelectNodes("//*[self::A[@class!='custom'] or self::a[@class!='custom']]");
Now, I want to get IMG tags as well and I want to add the following experession as well to the above expression:-
//*[self::IMG or self::img]
...so that I get all the IMG nodes as well and any tag other than having "custom" as value in the class attribute.
Any help will be appreciated.
EDIT :- I tried the following and this is an invalid syntax as this returns a boolean and not any nodelist:-
XmlNodeList nodeList = document.SelectNodes("//*[self::A[@class!='custom'] or self::a[@class!='custom']] && [self::IMG or self::img]");
