Binding listbox to XML - accessing node value

[Sybre]

I have a listbox which uses an XMLDataProvider as datacontext and is bound to an XPath query which returns a number of nodes with different names.
These names will vary at runtime therefore are unknown at design time and must be accessed dynamically.
I am trying to set the Item template to display both the name of the node and the value it holds. I can get the name through {Binding Name} but can't seem to get the value (I already tried {Binding Value}) - can anyone help?

XAML:

<ListBox Margin="2" ItemsSource="{Binding XPath=variables/*}">
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <TextBlock Margin="2" Text="{Binding Name}"></TextBlock>
                <TextBlock Margin="2" Text="{WHAT GOES HERE?}"></TextBlock>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

Example XPATH result:

<variables>
     <SourceFolder>[WORKROOT]\startfolder</SourceFolder>
     <TargetFolder>[WORKROOT]\endfolder</TargetFolder>
     <ReadOnly>True</ReadOnly>
</variables>

So with the example I'm looking for the listbox to show 3 lines:

SourceFolder [WORKROOT]\startfolder
TargetFolder [WORKROOT]\endfolder
ReadOnly True

I believe you use an XPath query in the binding for the textblock text property as well.

Have a look at http://blogs.msdn.com/ashish/archive...19/762085.aspx

I think it would look something like this

<ListBox DataContext="{StaticResource AshishBlog}"  ItemsSource="{Binding XPath=item/title}"/>

</Grid>

Hope that points you in the right direction.

Here is a better example, This is complete working code... You can paste this into a new window and run it as it, no code behind needed.

<Window.Resources>
        <XmlDataProvider x:Key="DrWPFFeeds" Source="http://www.drwpf.com/blog/Home/tabid/36/rssid/1/Default.aspx"/>
        <DataTemplate x:Key="CustomTemplate">
           <Border BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Cyan" Width="Auto">
            <StackPanel Margin="1">
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=title}"  Foreground="#515151" />
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=author}"  Foreground="#515151" />
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=pubDate}"  Foreground="#515151" />
            </StackPanel>
           </Border>
        </DataTemplate>
    </Window.Resources>
    <Grid DataContext="{Binding Source={StaticResource DrWPFFeeds}, XPath=/rss/channel/item}">
        <ListBox  Name="ListBox1" ItemsSource="{Binding}"  Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1"
                  ItemTemplate="{StaticResource CustomTemplate}" Margin="0,0,0,30">
        </ListBox>
    </Grid>

You can see how I am using the XPath in when I set the DataContext in the grid, then all I need to do is say, title, author, etc.

Hopefully this was more helpful.

Thanks

Sorry, I think I may have been a bit unclear - the listbox is actually nested in another datatemplate and the problem I have is that the XMl returned by {Binding XPath=variables/*} will vary so I can't access the childnodes by name as I don't know at design-time what the names will be.
I need to be able to access both the name of the node and the value of the data it holds without using the actual names.
