Bug 120036 Preview of XML attributes is not working
The XML attribute values are not working in the current BIRT XML ODA driver. Only 'text'-type XML elements' values are displayable in Preview. ColumnMapping XPath expressions like "@attributeName" are broken in Preview. I'll attach document showing the problem and sample XML/XSD data

private String buildPath( String path )
	{
		String prefix = "";
		
		
		if ( path.startsWith( "" ) )
		{
			path = path.replaceFirst( "", "" );
			prefix = "";
		}
		else if ( path.startsWith( "/" ) )
		{
			path = path.replaceFirst( "/", "" );
			prefix = "/";
		}
		String[] temp = path.split( "/" );
		for ( int i = 0; i < temp.length; i++ )
		{
			if ( temp[i].equals( ".." ) )
			{
				temp[i] = null;
				for ( int j = i - 1; j >= 0; j-- )
				{
					if ( temp[j] != null )
					{
						temp[j] = null;
						break;
					}
				}
