By adding square brackets with index. By using position () method in xpath.
You can use “tag:nth-of-type(n)”. It will select the nth tag element of the list.
The key part of this XPath is *[1] , which will select the node value of the first child of Department .
The XPath default axis is child , so your predicate [*/android.widget.TextView[@androidXtext='Microwaves']] is equivalent to [child::*/child::android.widget.TextView[@androidXtext='Microwaves']] This predicate will select nodes with a android. widget. TextView grandchild and the specified attribute.
This is a FAQ:
//somexpression[$N]
means "Find every node selected by //somexpression that is the $Nth child of its parent".
What you want is:
(//input[@id="search_query"])[2]
Remember: The [] operator has higher precedence (priority) than the // abbreviation.
This seems to work:
/descendant::input[@id="search_query"][2]
I go this from "XSLT 2.0 and XPath 2.0 Programmer's Reference, 4th Edition" by Michael Kay.
There is also a note in the "Abbreviated Syntax" section of the XML Path Language specification http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/#path-abbrev that provided a clue.
