XPath selections

[Tobias McNulty]

If I call selectSingleNode on a given root, with a expression such as 
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]", what actual nodes does Xalan search?  I am running 
Xerces to handle XML parsing and DOM.  My concern is this: since 
attributes are Nodes in Xerces, will Xalan test against _all_ the 
node children of 'object', including its elements, text nodes, etc., 
looking for the attribute 'id'?

Thanks,
Toby
