title: xpath 2.0 for java possible
body: <p>What package shall I use for XPath? I want wo query for elements and then extract some values around these nodes. Maybe one or more levels higher, some attributes.</p>
  
  <p><code>javax.xml.xpath</code> is XPath 1.0. Is <code>javax.xml.xpath</code> and <code>org.w3c.dom</code> the right way to go, or are there more modern implementations? <code>org.w3c.dom</code> is very awkward, JDOM seems alot easier.</p>
