In xml processing I have the following element: <abc> <xyz>contents</xyz> <xyz>contents</xyz> </abc> In the code it seems to make no diffence if I write /xyz or xyz without the / for the xyz-node. {\xmlindex{#1}{/xyz}{1}} {\xmlindex{#1}{xyz}{2}} In the reference manual I find the / used, as for example in {\xmlfirst{#1}{/caption}}. My question therefore: what exactly causes this behaviour? is it good coding practice to always use /xyz in this case? Hans van der Meer
