The XPath(XML Path Language) specification defines how a specific item within an XML document can be located. It is used extensively with XSLT. This is done by referencing specific nodes in the XML document. For example: 

  <JavaXML:Printer>
     . 
     .
  <JavaXML:Parts>

    
  </JavaXML:Parts>

  <JavaXML:Company> HP </JavaXML:Company>

  </JavaXML:Printer>
