XPath queries are a very efficient method of navigating an XML document to identify a particular data element required. A basic XPath query structure is very simple, but with a little more knowledge of the syntax options, very complex queries can be easily constructed.
WebMaker allows you to +?+?-?drag+?+?+? on simple XPath matches within the Studio. XPath queries are used in FormMaker for Web Page Data Bindings and in RuleMaker for rules processing.
