XPath 2.0?

[Jerry Wang <jw...@elegant.ca>]

Hi All,

Which version of xpath query language does XIndice support?

I tried some xpath 2.0 function, search for
/person[contains(lower-case(lname), lower-case('TEST'))]

with the online demo. It didn't return me any record.

If it only supports xpath 1.0, then is there any plan to support 2.0?

At which time they will be re-chartered most likely.
My guess would be nearer to Q3 2002.
   Over on the xslt list, the debate is only just started with
the new drafts, there is a long way to go yet, especially since
the two working groups are going to be debating which is right for both groups.

from http://www.w3.org/Style/2000/xsl-charter.html:

2.2 Duration and Milestones
The XSL Working Group is proposed to begin work in June 2000 and to continue
for 21 months, terminating in February 2002 after the publication of the next
version of XSL and XSLT/XPath as W3C Recommendations.

Quarter 1 of 2002, I guess...

Yeah, make sense. Thanks Dare.

Any idea when Xpath will become a recommendation?

I wonder how exactly Xindice can officially support XPath 2.0 if it hasn't
reached recommendation status yet and is still a Working Draft? Especially
since as most people know, W3C recommendations change significantly between
the WD, CR, PR and rec stages.

I will not have a son. Although his laughably under-planned attempt to usurp
power would easily fail, it would provide a fatal distraction at a crucial
point in time.
