Xpath functions
Can any one tell me how to access the xpath functions such as "translate(),
starts-with() " either in vbscript or javascript ?
I tried this --
<script language="javascript>
function findEmp(xmlSource){
var xmlResult= xmlSource.documentElement.selectSingleNode("/employees/employee[starts-with("
+ sSearchNode + "," + sSearchText + ")]");
}
but getting error as unknown function/method ?

The problem here is that by default MSXML use XSL Pattern as it's selection
language not XPath. Adding the following line of code may help:
xmlSource.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath"
However it does require MSXML 2.5 or higher.
