There will be some situations where using normal xpath did not work,in such case we can use xpath axes :
Following is the sample html code :
<html>
<body>
<div id='d1'>
<div id='id2'>
<input id='in1'>
<input id='in2'>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
1. //input[@id='in1']/ancestor::div Selects div having id=id2
2. //div[@id='id1']/descendant::div Selects div having id=id2
Note: By using above html code i tried to demonstrate the use of xpath axis. However by using simple xpath we can select any node from the above html.
