XPath contains one of multiple values

I have simple xpath

 /products/product[contains(categorie,'Kinderwagens')] 

It works but now how do I filter on multiple categorie values

like

/products/product[contains(categorie,'Kinderwagens')]  +  
/products/product[contains(categorie,'Kinderwagens')] 

Solution 1:

Will this work?

/products/product[contains(categorie,'Kinderwagens') or contains(categorie,'Wonderwagens')]

There is a similar question here

Solution 2:

Do you really want contains()? Very often, people use contains() to test whether a node contains a value when they should be using "=". The difference is that if the categorie element has the string value 'Kinderwagens', then categorie = 'wagens' is false but contains(categorie, 'wagens') is true.

If you actually intended '=', then in XPath 2.0 you can write [categorie = ('Kinderwagens', 'Wonderwagens')]. If you're still using XPath 1.0, you need two separate comparisons with an 'or'.

Solution 3:

There are many ways:

1. //*[contains(text(), 'Kinderwagens') or contains(text(), 'Kinderwagens')]
2. //product[contains(text(), 'Kinderwagens') or contains(text(), 'Kinderwagens')]
3. //products/product[contains(text(), 'Kinderwagens') or contains(text(), 'Kinderwagens')]
4. //products/product[contains(categorie, 'Kinderwagens') or contains(categorie, 'Kinderwagens')]

Note: | (Bitwise OR) operator don't be use
