Alphanumeric keys about defiant.js HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi @AVSYS-AK,
The reason for failure is the keys starting with a number...for instance "3XL". Keys such as these causes failure - the basic idea behind DefiantJS is that it transforms (or tries its best) JSON data into XML. Any XPath expressions made will be on that transformed XML document.

Now, since a node name can not start with an integer, the transform would fail - but, I thought about this exception and chose to handle such situations...though, this means that you'll have to write a "special" XPath.

Check out this JSFiddle I've created for you:

I think you should understand the solution - or at least use it for your benefit.

Cheers
