HI Jeff,

xmltest.rb :
require 'rexml/document'

xmlin = <<EOD
<a>
 <b>one</b>
 <c>two</c>
 <d>
   <e>three</e>
   <f>four</f>
 </d>
</a>
EOD

xml = REXML::Document.new(xmlin)
puts xml.elements['/a/d'].size
puts xml.elements['/a/d']


output :
5
<d>
   <e>three</e>
   <f>four</f>
 </d>

xml.elements['/a/d'] returns the entire xml tree under/including /a/d

I want this to return 1 (the number of "d" elements in the list)
