How can i get attribute values from xml using libxml

Rails
1

Hi ,
i have xml document like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-9"?>

…

then i have to use Category attribute but reader class couldnt
recognize attributes

when i use these codes below for testing;

while reader.read

puts reader.node_type
end

it shows only 1 and 15 values which means
XML_READER_TYPE_ELEMENT => 1
XML_READER_TYPE_END_ELEMENT => 15

how can i get attribute values?

i tried another method
doc = reader.expand
doc.find(’//Root/Stk/[Category=‘601’]’)
but it also didnt work

2

try doc.find(’//Root/Stk[@Category=“601”]’)

Thanks a lot Simon , it worked ,
can we double this filter method like category=“601” and brand=“15” at
the same time
