Rails - Aug 2007 - assert_select and xml:base

I trying to use assert_select to verify some xml content, where I
specify an xml:base attribute:

<group xml:base=''http://blah''/>

However I get an ''invalid selector'' error when doing this

assert_select "group[xml:base=''http://blah/'']

I''ve tried variations like putting a blackslash in front of the colon,
quoting xml:base etc., all to no avail.  Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!

Steve

Try assert_xpath:

http://assertxpath.rubyforge.org/classes/AssertXPath.html#assert_xpath

I just recently tried it, with the REXML backend, on a <fb:else> tag, and
it
worked. I didn''t put a colon in the predicate, though!

I don''t know if assert_hpricot will work, from the same library, but
REXML
is tricky, so read this to learn the issue:
