XPathNodeIterator problem

[philprice]

Right im getting an RSS feed, but i have two problems:

 

a) It looks at child nodes of in item - how do i stop it

b) It doesnt work

 

Do While (XMLFeedInfo.MoveNext)
           Debug.WriteLine("Node: " + XMLFeedInfo.Current.Name + " -> " + XMLFeedInfo.Current.Value)
           If (CStr(XMLFeedInfo.Current.Name).ToUpper = "TITLE") Then
               feed.siteTitle = CStr(XMLFeedInfo.Current.Value)
           End If

           If (CStr(XMLFeedInfo.Current.Name).ToUpper = "LINK") Then
               feed.siteLink = CStr(XMLFeedInfo.Current.Value)
           End If

       Loop

 

The XMLFeedInfo object is created by...

 

'' Set which node path to look down for feed info (e.g. /channel)
       Dim XMLFeedInfo = docNavigator.Select(strFeedInfoNodePath)

'' Where strFeedInfoNodePath = /rss/channel

I want to get /rss/channel/title and /rss/channel/link but the above code just wont work and i cant figure out why, any ideas?

This doesn't necessarily answer your question, but it does appear to be related (it's a sample to extract RSS information):
