+<context><p>XPath is a simple query language for XML. An XPath expression
+describes a subset of an XML tree, such as all the elements with a specified
+name, or all the children of a specific node. Evaluating an XPath expression
+means searching in the XML tree for matching nodes or content: clients of
+the XML Engine use it to explore XML data. </p> <p>The following steps show
+how to make an XPath query with the XML Engine. </p> </context>
