Description

Using Genshi 0.3.5 (http://svn.edgewall.org/repos/genshi/tags/0.3.5). I have a small template that triggers an infinite loop in genshi.path.Path.test. I'm attempting to selectively match & modify tags based on both element paths and element attribute values.

This works as expected (it selects the ul tag and its kids)

<document xmlns:py="http://genshi.edgewall.org/">

<div id='matching_eg3'>
    <py:match path='ul'>
        <ul foo='bar' bar='foo' py:attrs='select("@*")'>
            ${select('.[@flag="1"]/*')}</ul>
    </py:match>
    <ul flag="1"><li>a</li><li>b</li></ul>
</div>
</document>

The following gets stuck for ever in genshi.path.Path.test, in the while 1: loop starting at line 184. The node test is successful and the path predicate is not.

<document xmlns:py="http://genshi.edgewall.org/">
<div id='matching_eg3'>
    <py:match path='ul'>
        <ul foo='bar' bar='foo' py:attrs='select("@*")'>
            ${select('.[@flag="0"]/*')}</ul>
    </py:match>
    <ul flag="1"><li>a</li><li>b</li></ul>
</div>
</document>

What am I doing wrong ?

Nothing, you've discovered a bug :-P I'm able to reproduce this.

I can confirm this works on the trunk (r476). Thanks for the quick response.
