XQueryX is a *standard* W3C Recommendation: http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-xqueryx-30-20140408/ http://www.w3.org/TR/xqueryx/ And at least for the previous version I think there was a Java-based parser for XQuery, that produced an XQueryX XML document from an XQuery expression. Certainly XPath is a true subset of XQuery. This means that the parser will successfully produce an XQueryX document for any input XPath expression. So, one will simply use *XPath* to navigate an XPath expression that is converted to XQueryX. I think it wouldn't be too much effort to refactor the XQueryX grammar, so that a subset of it will be the grammar of what we could call "XPathX". Maybe an idea for EXPath? -- Cheers, Dimitre Novatchev
