	//		specified to 'path' property.
	//		The root object for this class must be an DOM document or element
	//		node.
	//		"@name" accesses to an attribute value of an element and "text()"
	//		accesses to a text value of an element.
	//		The hierarchy of the elements from the root node can be specified
	//		with slash-separated list, such as "a/b/@c", which specifies
	//		the value of an attribute named "c" of an element named "b" as
	//		a child of another element named "a" of a child of the root node.
