Paul,
it is hard to say what would cause XPathAPI.selecSingleNode to throw a
TransformerException.


Such a TransformerException could be:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException
javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException
org.apache.xpath.XPathException


The String passed in could be critical as it must be a valid XPath string.

Deeper down in the XPath code any number of things could throw such an
exception.
This method you mention can call
  org.apache.xpath.XPathAPI.selectNodeIterator,
which in turn can call
  org.apache.xpath.XPathAPI.eval
which calls
  org.apache.xpath.XPath.execute

XPath.execute could be throwing the exception.

Unless this question is related to a specific problem I can't say much more
without more details of that problem.

what would cause the "selectSingleNode" to throw a
transformerException?

thanks
