LINQ-to-XML selection based on node values, newbie question
- by mmcglynn
Given the following XML, I would like to return all eventtitles where the eventtype id = 23. My current query only looks at the first eventtype, so returns the wrong result.
<event>
<eventtitle>Garrison Keillor</eventtitle>
<eventtypes>
<eventtype id="24"/>
<eventtype id="23"/>
</eventtypes>
</event>
<event>
<eventtitle>Joe Krown Trio featuring Walter Wolfman Washington</eventtitle>
<eventtypes>
<eventtype id="23"/>
</eventtypes>
</event>
LINQ query:
Dim query = _
From c In calXML...<event> _
Where c...<eventtypes>.<eventtype>.@id = "23" _
Select c.<eventtitle>.Value, c.<eventlocation>.Value
For Each item In query
Response.Write("<h3>" & item.eventtitle & "</h3>")
Response.Write(item.eventlocation & "<br />")
Next
