Hi Martin,
I have tried your suggestion and it didn't worked out. It is popping up
an error message saying :
Unknown method.
/UserInfo/Contacts/Name[-->contains(.<--,"Apple")]
The following is the code which i have written:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
Body {font-family:Arial; }
th {font-size:0.8em;}
td {font-size:0.8em;}
p {font-size:0.8em;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<xml id="UserInfo" src="test.xml"> </xml>
<p>Enter Name: <input type='text' name=col_no style='border:1 px solid
#d2d2d2'> &nb sp;
<input type=button name='Search' value='Search Now' style='border:1 px
solid black;height=20 px'onClick='jav ascript:var sepvar
= col_no.value;
SetAndFilter(Us erInfo,DataExtr actLower,"UserI nfo/Contacts/Name[contains(.,\"Ap ple\")]")'></p>
<xml id="DataExtract Lower"></xml>
<table datasrc="#DataE xtractLower" width=100% border=0>
<thead bgcolor="#d2d2d 2">

<tr bgcolor="#e2e2e 2">

<td width="20%"><sp an datafld="Desig" ></span></td>
<td width="20%"><sp an datafld="DeptCC "></span></td>
</tr>
</table>
<script language=javasc ript>
function SetAndFilter (sourceXML, destXML, XPathFormula) {
alert(XPathForm ula);
sourceXML.setPr operty("Selecti onLanguage", "XPath");
var dummy = destXML.XMLDocu ment.loadXML(so urceXML.xml);
vNodesToRemove = destXML.selectN odes(XPathFormu la) ;
vNodesToRemove. removeAll();
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
So, whatever the user types in should check for the initial characters
of both firstname and last name.
If a user enters "cla" then it should bring back "Michael clark" as
well as "clark michael"
Hope my question is understandable. I learnt a way to program to
display xml like html tables using data islands...
