    Search in Children

    Hi all

    In C# I want to do this:
    Find out if a node with "thisname" excists in doc1.Children or doc2.Children.

    Is there a better, and more resource-friendly way of doing this, than just two foreach loops?

     

    Thanks,
    Mathias

    If the nodes are published, you could use umbraco.library.GetXmlNodeById or umbraco.library.GetAll and just run an XPath statement?

    You could try Hendy's Umbraco Helper class?

    http://blog.hendyracher.co.uk/umbraco-helper-class/

    There is a method for "GetChildNodeByName" ... or you can use XPath with one of the other methods? like "GetNodesFromXpath".

    Cheers, Lee.

    Thanks all!

    I now use GetXmlByXPath to serach for the node excistence:

    XPathNodeIterator n = umbraco.library.GetXmlNodeByXPath("/root/node [@nodeName = 'Runway Homepage']/node [@nodeName = 'TheNode']");

    Now, what is the best way to see if the node excists or not, fx. a trye/false output?

    Thanks again,
    Mathias
