Re^2: XML::XPath Question

Actually, another question.. the doc says that findnodes

"Returns a list of nodes found by $path, optionally in context $context. In scalar context returns an XML::XPath::NodeSet object."

I had taken that to mean that since I am invoking the method inside the braces for a foreach loop

foreach my $node ($tree->findnodes())

It would return a list of nodes.. Isn't that a list contest? Why would it be a scalar context?

Indeed, it should return the list of nodes in your case. I think I was just barking up the wrong tree, sorry.	[reply]
