Whenever you deal with XPath, you may really benefit from a dedicated tool
like:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/xpe/ (Java desktop app)

Or:

http://www.topxml.com/xpathvisualizer/ (run inside IE, there is a Mozilla
version too)

Good tutorials are available as well:

http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/default.asp
http://www.topxml.com/xsl/default.asp

Or a great book:

http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/xpathpointer/


As I mentioned before, the only gotcha with XmlSearch() is that  it throws
an
exception if the XPath expression doesn't return an array of elements but,
instead, it return a string, a boolean or a number. So expressions like this
(100% legal XPath):

count(/*/)

Make it blow away...
