    XPATH : find ancestor of doctype x for given node?

    It's obviously been too long since I queried with XPATH as I'm struggling with this.

    I've got a node, I know its ID and I know that one of its ancestors further up the tree is of document type 'en'.

    How do I find that that 'en' node?

    Thanks in advance.

    Matt

    Easier after a night's sleep. :-)

    //*[@id=" + node.Id + "]/ancestor::Lang [@isDoc]

    'Lang' = doc type alias you're looking for.

    Hi Matt,

    If you have IPublishedContent node then you can get ancestors using below.

    node.Ancestor("en")

    Hope it will help.

    Thanks Urvish,

    I don't because it's Umbraco 4.7.

    Regards, Matt
