Trying to get my brain around Xpath. First, do I need to learn XPath 1 or XPath 2? Second, what is the difference between an atomic value and a text node? Is an atomic value always a literal string? Is there a better place to ask really ignorant questions?

  Start with XPath 1. 2 is an extension of that.

  
  For more detailed issues, the xml-dev mailing list is a good place to ask and will get a wealth of responses: http://www.xml.org/xml/xmldev.shtml
