hello all.

I need some help in understanding XPath selection in JQuery:
i.e. i have this html code:
<html>
    <head>
    <script language='javascript' src='jquery.js'></script>
        <script language='javascript'>
            function f()
{
    alert($('//body/div'));
}
        </script>
    </head>
    <body onload='f()'>
        <div id='1'>
            <div id='2'> aa </div>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

after loading this page, firebug throws:
exception uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: //
body/div

when i changed selector syntax to $("//body/div[id='1']") it returnes
div with id 1

i'll be appreciate for any help!
thnx
