Hi all, just looking for a little guidance with xml procerssing.
Imagine the scenario, I have a XmlDocument object populated with XML. I need
to find and replaces some of the text in one of the nodes, i.e. the basic
XML below, I want to substitute _replace_with_v alue_ with some data,
<root>
....
<tag>_replace_w ith_value_</tag>
....
</root>
What is the process for doing this. I can find the node using
SelectSingleNod e, however this extracts it into a new NodeElement, what do I
need todo to perform a simple search and replace on my main document object?
Thanks,
Kind regards

SelectSingleNod e does not extract the node into a new XmlNode. It
returns the node from the document that matched the selection criteria.
So, if you say:
XmlNode tagNode = doc.SelectSingl eNode("root/tag");
tagNode.InnerTe xt = "changed";
then the contents of the tag within the XML document doc will change to
"changed". tagNode is a reference into the XmlDocument, not a copy.
Many thanks Bruce, problem solved. However a further question to increase my
understanding, why does a namespace object have to be given to the
SelectSingleNod e member before executing?
i.e.
XmlNamespaceMan ager nsmgr = new XmlNamespaceMan ager(xmlDoc.Nam eTable);
nsmgr.AddNamesp ace("xsi", http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance);
what does this achieve?
Thanks again,
Taz
Namespaces in XML server pretty much the same purpose as they do in .NET
Framework. They serve to disambiguate between element tag names that may be
the same but belong to different groups. That's the short answer, if you
really wnat to get farther into XML the Quickstarts has some samples and MSDN
Online has extensive documentation.

Hi,
this might be useful in some scenarios like when you have a new child with
which you want to replace with your old child node. as well, it will help
you to replace a old child in a document with new child from some other
document,
XmlNode node = doc.SelectSingl eNode("//root/firstchild");
XmlNode node1 = doc.SelectSingl eNode("//root/secondchild");
node.ParentNode .ReplaceChild(n ode1,node);
If you have a new child element - node1 is from other document then
node.ParentNode .ReplaceChild(d oc..ImportNode( node1,true), ,node);

And it is only required when you are using some elements with some prefix
like myns:mynode then myns must be tied with some namespace so you have to
use namespace in that scenario only else no namespace is required and its
only purpose is to distinguish the elements with the same name [if it is
there] from different namespaces like what Namespace in .Net serves the
purpose....
Agree with Peter,
