XPath
Also known as XML Path Language
XPath (XML Path Language) is an expression language designed to support the query or transformation of XML documents. It was defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in 1999, and can be used to compute values (e.g., strings, numbers, or Boolean values) from the content of an XML document. Support for XPath exists in applications that support XML, such as web browsers, and many programming languages.

XPath即为XML路径语言（XML Path Language），它是一种用来确定XML文档中某部分位置的计算机语言。 XPath基于XML的树状结构，提供在数据结构树中找寻节点的能力。起初XPath的提出的初衷是将其作为一个通用的、介于与XSL间的语法模型。但是XPath很快的被开发者采用来当作小型查询语言。
