selenium-ide

Hi, I am trying to get a xpath query using the xpath function lower-case or uppper-case, but they seem to not work in selenium (where I test my xpath before I apply it).

Example that does NOT work: //*[.=upper-case('some text')]

I have no problem locating the nodes I need in complex path and even using aggregated functions, as long as I don't use the upper and lower case.

Has anyone encountered this before? Does it make sense?

Thanks.
