Hi Bryan, do you use namespaces in your xml file. If so, that one needs to be registered first, before doing queries. In the future it is helpful to add a snipped of the XML files as well, when asking. Stefan Bryan Christ wrote:
Well that helps a bit, but the problem still remains that the list shouldn't return empty. Any thoughts?

When I do this, I *do not* get the error messages: xmlXPathNodeCollectAndTest xpath.c:1923 : nodelist and node are NULL However, xpath_object is still returned as NULL. According to the documentation, even if there are no matches, shouldn't I receive back a valid pointer to an empty list?No, you may get NULL for an empty Nodeset. It's an optimization which made huge difference for XSLT performances (no need to allocate/ deallocate empty lists all the time).
