Re: [basex-talk] Getting node by index.

Hi Alex,

but how can I get objects in my data base that contain these indexes?

just use ordinary XPath/XQuery expressions, such as.. db:open('db')//*[@* = 'id152429'] You can also directly retrieve text and attribute nodes, e.g. as follows [1]: db:attribute('db', 'id152429') Hope this helps, Christian [1] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:attribute
