XPath Tutorial
 |
XPath is a language for finding information in an XML document. XPath is
used to navigate through elements and attributes in an XML document.
XPath is a major element in the W3C's XSLT standard - and XQuery and
XPointer are both built
on XPath expressions.
So an understanding of XPath is fundamental to a lot of advanced XML
usage.
