title: The difference between ".//*" and "//*" XPath?
body: <p>The difference between:
  1: <code>&quot;.//*&quot;</code>
  and
  2: <code>&quot;//*&quot;</code>
  XPath in the following:
  the first one means &quot;from the current context i.e from <strong>this</strong> place/point&quot;.
  Do I get it right?
  What is the sense in such XPath: <code>&quot;.//a[contains(., 'some text')]&quot;</code>?</p>
