Hello world!

My question is - is it possible to parse node values based on their attribute value. To clearify:

-----XML----

\<content\>  
\<page name=“10”\>  
\<heading\>Heading 10\</heading\>  
\<txt\>text 10\</txt\>  
\</page\>  
\<page name=“11”\>  
\<heading\>Heading 11\</heading\>  
\<txt\>text 11\</txt\>  
\</page\>  
\</content\>

-----XML----

Can i use the ‘name’ value to get the node values of that node.

In idiotScript: getNodeValue.name(11); :ko:
