	This should select the <name> org.jdom.Element

	This *should* select the string-value of the org.jdom.Element,

	This is the same as 'name' above.

	This is the same as 'name/text()' above.

	This will only select the root element if its
	a <name> tag, else an empty-set will be returned.

	This will select all <name> elements within your

*Which* XPath engine are you using?
