    Getting NodeID from DocType and DocName using XSLT and API

    Hi,

    I am trying to find the nodeID for a document so I can create a child document under it.

    The XSLT I am using is as follows (where 'McIntyre' is the name of the parent page)

    "node[@nodeName='McIntyre' and @nodeTypeAlias='Family']" 

    I am then calling the XSLT with the following code

     System.Xml.XPath.XPathNodeIterator iter = umbraco.library.GetXmlNodeByXPath(itemName);

    I am having trouble debugging the solution and no matter what I do with the iterator can't seem to get to the NodeID.  

    I am definately not an XSLT guru and would appreciate any help.

     

    Thanks

    Aaron

    Try

     System.Xml.XPath.XPathNodeIterator iter = umbraco.library.GetXmlNodeByXPath("//node[@nodeName='McIntyre' and @nodeTypeAlias='Family']" );

    Thanks Chris.

    Adding the // to the front of the XSLT solved the problem.  I had been using an online tester which had been working without the // which is what threw me.

     

    Cheers
