I have an odd XML document that I have to query. Its from the Weather.gov output. The information I'd like to query within is under: /Enelope/Body/NDFDgenResponse/dwmlOut. Its a converted form of XML. Is it possible to query individual elements under that value, or will I have to post process it to query within it? My suspicion is that I'll have to post process.

This is a working example of pure XPath 3.0:
//dwmlOut/parse-xml(text())/dwml/head/product/title/text()
Of course, your xpath processor has to support version 3.0 which zorba for example does:
With pure XPath probably not. But if you invoke XPath from any other language, you can select that node first into a string type variable, then parse that string as another xml document and use a second XPath expression to select nodes from inside. it
Even if it's possible using pure XPath, this two-step approach is definitely a lot easier to code, test and maintain.
