Returns an XPathResult based on an XPath expression and other given parameters.

Syntax

var xpathResult = document.evaluate(
 xpathExpression, 
 contextNode, 
 namespaceResolver, 
 resultType, 
 result);

xpathExpression is a string representing the XPath to be evaluated.
contextNode specifies the context node for the query (see the [http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath XPath specification). It's common to pass document as the context node.
namespaceResolver is a function that will be passed any namespace prefixes and should return a string representing the namespace URI associated with that prefix. It will be used to resolve prefixes within the XPath itself, so that they can be matched with the document. null is common for HTML documents or when no namespace prefixes are used.
resultType is an integer that corresponds to the type of result XPathResult to return. Use named constant properties, such as XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, of the XPathResult constructor, which correspond to integers from 0 to 9.
result is an existing XPathResult to use for the results. null is the most common and will create a new XPathResult

Example

From the Mozilla XPath Tutorial:

   var headings = document.evaluate("//h2", document, null, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null);   
   /* Search the document for all h2 elements.   
    * The result will likely be an unordered node iterator. */  
   var thisHeading = headings.iterateNext();   
   var alertText = "Level 2 headings in this document are:\n";  
   while (thisHeading) {  
     alertText += thisHeading.textContent + "\n";  
     thisHeading = headings.iterateNext();  
   }  
   alert(alertText); // Alerts the text of all h2 elements

var headings = document.evaluate("//h2", document, null, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null); 
/* Search the document for all h2 elements.  
 * The result will likely be an unordered node iterator. */
var thisHeading = headings.iterateNext(); 
var alertText = "Level 2 headings in this document are:\n";
while (thisHeading) {
  alertText += thisHeading.textContent + "\n";
  thisHeading = headings.iterateNext();
}
alert(alertText); // Alerts the text of all h2 elements

Notes

XPath expressions can be evaluated on HTML and XML documents.
While using document.evaluate() works in FF2, in FF3 one must use someXMLDoc.evaluate() if evaluating against something other than the current document.

Result types

(Merge with Template:XPathResultConstants?

These are supported values for the resultType parameter of the evaluate method:

Result Type	Value	Description
`ANY_TYPE`	0	Whatever type naturally results from the given expression.
`NUMBER_TYPE`	1	A result set containing a single number. Useful, for example, in an XPath expression using the `count()` function.
`STRING_TYPE`	2	A result set containing a single string.
`BOOLEAN_TYPE`	3	A result set containing a single boolean value. Useful, for example, an an XPath expression using the `not()` function.
`UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE`	4	A result set containing all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes in the result set are not necessarily in the same order they appear in the document.
`ORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE`	5	A result set containing all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes in the result set are in the same order they appear in the document.
`UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE`	6	A result set containing snapshots of all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes in the result set are not necessarily in the same order they appear in the document.
`ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE`	7	A result set containing snapshots of all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes in the result set are in the same order they appear in the document.
`ANY_UNORDERED_NODE_TYPE`	8	A result set containing any single node that matches the expression. The node is not necessarily the first node in the document that matches the expression.
`FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE`	9	A result set containing the first node in the document that matches the expression.

Results of NODE_ITERATOR types contain references to nodes in the document. Modifying a node will invalidate the iterator. After modifying a node, attempting to iterate through the results will result in an error.

Results of NODE_SNAPSHOT types are snapshots, which are essentially lists of matched nodes. You can make changes to the document by altering snapshot nodes. Modifying the document doesn't invalidate the snapshot; however, if the document is changed, the snapshot may not correspond to the current state of the document, since nodes may have moved, been changed, added, or removed.

Specification

DOM Level 3 XPath

It depends, if your document is an XML DOM document like IE gives you
with XMLHTTP as responseXML then you can do XPath queries with
selectNodes and selectSingleNode e.g.
var tbody = xmlDocument.selectSingleNode("id('main')/tbody");

If your document is a HTML document rendered in IE then there is no
XPath support (respectively no support for XPath over HTML).

That simply example however can be done with the Core and HTML DOM e.g.
var tableBody = document.getElementById('main').tBodies[0];
so you must sure why you use XPath at all if that is an HTML document.

Thanks for this share on returning an XPathResult. I was searching for the exact same data and I'm glad that I found this section which contains both coding and description. It helped me to have an idea about how an Xpath is created. plant-based diets
