I was trying to get only the first element:
<xml>
<title>xpath.playground.fontoxml.com</title>
<summary>This is a learning tool for XML, XPath and XQuery.</summary>
<tips>
<tip id='1' name='hello'>You can edit everything on the left</tip>
<tip id='examples'>You can access more examples from a menu in the top right</tip>
<tip id='permalink'>Another button there lets you share your test using an URL</tip>
</tips>
<tips>
<tip id='2' name='hello'>You can edit everything on the left</tip>
<tip id='examples'>You can access more examples from a menu in the top right</tip>
<tip id='permalink'>Another button there lets you share your test using an URL</tip>
</tips>
</xml>
This is the XPATH, im trying to get one element from all with name='hello'
//*[@name='hello'][1]
but it returns both <tip id='1' name='hello'> and <tip id='2' name='hello'>
my expectation was //*[@name='hello'][1] returns the element with id=1 and //*[@name='hello'][2] returns the element with id=2
how do I get this result
