XPath Functions
Node Set Functions
last() | Returns the number of nodes matching the axis
count(node-set) | Returns the number of nodes matching the node-set pattern.
local-part(node) | Returns the local part of the node's name.
namespace(node) | Returns the namespace URL the node's name.
name(node) | Returns the node's name.
id(idref) | Returns the node with the 'ID' attribute equals to idref.
String Functions
string(obj) | Converts the object to a string.
concat(s1, s2, ...) | Concatenates strings.
starts-with(string, head) | True if string starts with head.
contains(string, substring) | True if string contains substring.
substring-before(string, substring) | Returns the substring of string before matching substring.
substring-after(string, substring) | Returns the substring of string after the matching substring.
string-length(string) | Returns the string length of string.
normalize-space(string) | Normalizes whitespace.
translate(string, from, to) | Converts characters in a string, like the 'tr' command.
Boolean Functions
boolean(obj) | Converts obj into a boolean
true() | Returns true.
false() | Returns false.
lang(language) | Returns true if the context node has an xml:lang of language.
Number Functions
number(obj) | Converts obj to a number (Java double)
sum(node-set) | Converts the node values of node-set to numbers and adds them.
floor(number) | Returns the closest integer below number.
ceiling(number) | Returns the closest integer above number.
round(number) | Rounds number to the nearest integer.
Resin Extensions
if(test,a,b) | Conditionally selects the value of a or b.
Node Set Functions
### last()
Returns the number of nodes matching the axis
chapter/verse[last()]
| The last verse in each chapter.
ancestor::node()[last()]
| The furthest ancestor from the current node.

### count(node-set)

Returns the number of nodes matching the node-set pattern.

### local-part(node)

Returns the local part of the node's name. In other words, the node name stripped of the namespace prefix.

### namespace(node)

Returns the namespace URL the node's name.

### name(node)

Returns the node's name.

### id(idref)

Returns the node with the 'ID' attribute equals to idref. The ID attribute is assigned in the DTD. The actual attribute name may, of course, vary.

String Functions

### string(obj)

Converts the object to a string.

### concat(s1, s2, ...)

Concatenates strings.

### starts-with(string, head)

True if string starts with head.

### contains(string, substring)

True if string contains substring.

### substring-before(string, substring)

Returns the substring of string before matching substring.

### substring-after(string, substring)

Returns the substring of string after the matching substring.

### string-length(string)

Returns the string length of string.

### normalize-space(string)

Normalizes whitespace. Consecutive whitespace is converted into a single space. Leading and trailing whitespace is trimmed.

### translate(string, from, to)

Converts characters in a string, like the 'tr' command.

Boolean Functions

### boolean(obj)

Converts obj into a boolean

### true()

Returns true.

### false()

Returns false.

### lang(language)

Returns true if the context node has an xml:lang of language.

Number Functions

### number(obj)

Converts obj to a number (Java double)

### sum(node-set)

Converts the node values of node-set to numbers and adds them.

### floor(number)

Returns the closest integer below number.

### ceiling(number)

Returns the closest integer above number.

### round(number)

Rounds number to the nearest integer.

Resin Extensions

### if(test,a,b)

Conditionally selects the value of a or b. If test evaluates to true, return the value of a. Otherwise, return the value of b.
