hi

example:
<almostweekend>
<!--saterday>beer</saterday>
<sunday>sleeping</sunday-->
</almostweekend>

I get 'true' when doing in asp:
set n = xmlobj.selectsinglenode("almostweekend")
if n.hasChildnodes then --> results in True
and
n.Childnodes.length = 1 --> must be 0 of course

what am I doing wrong? Im using msxml2.domdocument.4.0

thx
kabe

Your problem is that a comment is a type of node. If you want to restrict to element nodes only, use n.selectNodes("*").length - then you'll get 0 as the answer.
