Re: [xml] How to select a node based on attribute values?

[Rob Richards <rrichards ctindustries net>]

Yan,

I answered your question off list as it doesn't pertain to libxml2 but 
rather coding with domxml from PHP 4.

Seeing that there happens to be a good number of PHP based questions 
coming up, I'd like to make sure people are aware of the general PHP 
mailing list (php-general lists php net). The people that follow that 
list can probably better handled a lot of these questions.
