This:
//Book[@size='2'][Title='xyz']

I have 2 elements with same attribute but with different child node values. Can I query to find a specific element which matches the attribute and also the child node value. To be specific, this is the sample xml i am using to query(each element in original xml has more than 10 childe nodes).
<Book size="2"> <Title>abc</Title> <Price>10</Price> </Book> <Book size="2"> <Title>xyz</Title> <Price>20</Price> </Book> <Book size="4"> <Title>Harry</Title> <Price>10</Price> </Book>
So, now I want to find the Book element which has the
@size = "2"
andTitle = xyz
.Is this possible by using
SelectSingleNode
method? If not how to query this?Thanks
