xpath question


Hi,

How can I make my XPath query to return both "Bob" & "bob" (during search
for a
string) ?

any idea?

thanks

Something like //node/whatever[@name = bob | Bob]

Probably not the correct syntax, but the idea is to use the | operator. Look
up the XPath reference in MSDN, it has samples.
