• How can I use it?

Answer 1

Not yet,but the project JsoupXpath has make it.For example,

String html = "
some body
Two
";
JXDocument underTest = JXDocument.create(html);
String xpath = "//div[contains(@class,'xiao')]/text()";
JXNode node = underTest.selNOne(xpath);
Assert.assertEquals("Two",node.asString());

By the way,it supports the complete W3C XPATH 1.0 standard syntax.Such as

//ul[@class='subject-list']/li[./div/div/span[@class='pl']/num()>(1000+90*(2*50))][last()][1]/div/h2/allText()
//ul[@class='subject-list']/li[not(contains(self::li/div/div/span[@class='pl']//text(),'14582'))]/div/h2//text()
