The following script shows how to use a JavaScript regular expression (RegExp) to find and format XML
elements by their content (for the complete script, see FindXMLElementByRegExp):

var myDocument = app.documents.item(0);
var myRuleSet = new Array (new FindByContent);
with(myDocument){
}
}
else{
alert("No open document");
}
function FindByContent(){
//Find descriptions that contain both "triangle" and "pulse".
var myRegExp = /triangle.*?pulse|pulse.*?triangle/i
this.name = "FindByContent";
//XPath will match on every description in the XML structure.
this.xpath = "/devices/device/description";
this.apply = function(myElement, myRuleProcessor){
app.documents.item(0).swatches.item(-1);

The following script shows how to use the
