How to Use xmerl_xpath:string ???

[Sanjaya Vitharana]

Hi...!!!

Can anybody give me a example of using xmerl_xpath:string function.

what is the format of xPathString() ???

Since my ParsResult2=xmlElement()

I think my input format of xPathString() is invalid.

No docs found. So ... Need Help from expert ..... !!!!!

------ below is my try, but it gives an error ------------------------------------------

54> {ParsResult2,Misc2}=xmerl_scan:file('ivr.xml',[{validation,true]).

55> xmerl_xpath:string("/<IVR>/<content>/",ParsResult2).
