   50/** <module> Select nodes in an XML DOM
   51
   52The library xpath.pl provides predicates to select nodes from an XML DOM
   53tree as produced by library(sgml) based  on descriptions inspired by the
   54XPath language.
   55
   56The   predicate   xpath/3   selects   a   sub-structure   of   the   DOM
   57non-deterministically based on an  XPath-like   specification.  Not  all
   58selectors of XPath are implemented, but the ability to mix xpath/3 calls
   59with arbitrary Prolog code  provides  a   powerful  tool  for extracting
   60information from XML parse-trees.

   68%!  xpath_chk(+DOM, +Spec, ?Content) is semidet.
   69%
   70%   Semi-deterministic version of xpath/3.
   71
   72xpath_chk(DOM, Spec, Content) :-
   73    xpath(DOM, Spec, Content),
   74    !.
   75
   76%!  xpath(+DOM, +Spec, ?Content) is nondet.
   77%
   78%   Match an element in a DOM structure.   The syntax is inspired by
   79%   XPath, using () rather than  []   to  select  inside an element.
   80%   First we can construct paths using / and //:
   81%
   82%       $ =|//|=Term :
   83%       Select any node in the DOM matching term.
   84%       $ =|/|=Term :
   85%       Match the root against Term.
   86%       $ Term :
   87%       Select the immediate children of the root matching Term.
   88%
   89%   The Terms above are of type   _callable_.  The functor specifies
   90%   the element name. The element name   '*'  refers to any element.
   91%   The name =self= refers to the   top-element  itself and is often
   92%   used for processing matches of an  earlier xpath/3 query. A term
   93%   NS:Term refers to an XML  name   in  the  namespace NS. Optional
   94%   arguments specify additional  constraints   and  functions.  The
   95%   arguments are processed from left  to right. Defined conditional
   96%   argument values are:
   97%
   98%       $ index(?Index) :
   99%       True if the element is the Index-th child of its parent,
  100%       where 1 denotes the first child. Index can be one of:
  101%         $ `Var` :
  102%         `Var` is unified with the index of the matched element.
  103%         $ =last= :
  104%         True for the last element.
  105%         $ =last= - `IntExpr` :
  106%         True for the last-minus-nth element. For example,
  107%         `last-1` is the element directly preceding the last one.
  108%         $ `IntExpr` :
  109%         True for the element whose index equals `IntExpr`.
  110%       $ Integer :
  111%       The N-th element with the given name, with 1 denoting the
  112%       first element. Same as index(Integer).
  113%       $ =last= :
  114%       The last element with the given name. Same as
  115%       index(last).
  116%       $ =last= - IntExpr :
  117%       The IntExpr-th element before the last.
  118%       Same as index(last-IntExpr).
  119%
  120%   Defined function argument values are:
  121%
  122%       $ =self= :
  123%       Evaluate to the entire element
  124%       $ =content= :
  125%       Evaluate to the content of the element (a list)
  126%       $ =text= :
  127%       Evaluates to all text from the sub-tree as an atom
  128%       $ =normalize_space= :
  129%       As =text=, but uses normalize_space/2 to normalise
  130%       white-space in the output
  131%       $ =number= :
  132%       Extract an integer or float from the value.  Ignores
  133%       leading and trailing white-space
  134%       $ =|@|=Attribute :
  135%       Evaluates to the value of the given attribute.  Attribute
  136%       can be a compound term. In this case the functor name
  137%       denotes the element and arguments perform transformations
  138%       on the attribute value.  Defined transformations are:
  139%
  140%         - number
  141%         Translate the value into a number using
  142%         xsd_number_string/2 from library(sgml).
  143%         - integer
  144%         As `number`, but subsequently transform the value
  145%         into an integer using the round/1 function.
  146%         - float
  147%         As `number`, but subsequently transform the value
  148%         into a float using the float/1 function.
  149%         - string
  150%         Translate the value into a Prolog string.
  151%         - lower
  152%         Translate the value to lower case, preserving
  153%         the type.
  154%         - upper
  155%         Translate the value to upper case, preserving
  156%         the type.
  157%
  158%   In addition, the argument-list can be _conditions_:
  159%
  160%       $ Left = Right :
  161%       Succeeds if the left-hand unifies with the right-hand.
  162%       If the left-hand side is a function, this is evaluated.
  163%       The right-hand side is _never_ evaluated, and thus the
  164%       condition `content = content` defines that the content
  165%       of the element is the atom `content`.
  166%       The functions `lower_case` and `upper_case` can be applied
  167%       to Right (see example below).
  168%       $ contains(Haystack, Needle) :
  169%       Succeeds if Needle is a sub-string of Haystack.
  170%       $ XPath :
  171%       Succeeds if XPath matches in the currently selected
  172%       sub-DOM.  For example, the following expression finds
  173%       an =h3= element inside a =div= element, where the =div=
  174%       element itself contains an =h2= child with a =strong=
  175%       child.
  176%
  177%         ==
  178%         //div(h2/strong)/h3
  179%         ==
  180%
  181%       This is equivalent to the conjunction of XPath goals below.
  182%
  183%         ==
  184%            ...,
  185%            xpath(DOM, //(div), Div),
  186%            xpath(Div, h2/strong, _),
  187%            xpath(Div, h3, Result)
  188%         ==
  189%
  190%   **Examples**:
  191%
  192%   Match each table-row in DOM:
  193%
  194%       ==
  195%       xpath(DOM, //tr, TR)
  196%       ==
  197%
  198%   Match the last cell  of  each   tablerow  in  DOM.  This example
  199%   illustrates that a result can be the input of subsequent xpath/3
  200%   queries. Using multiple queries  on   the  intermediate  TR term
  201%   guarantee that all results come from the same table-row:
  202%
  203%       ==
  204%       xpath(DOM, //tr, TR),
  205%       xpath(TR,  /td(last), TD)
  206%       ==
  207%
  208%   Match each =href= attribute in an <a> element
  209%
  210%       ==
  211%       xpath(DOM, //a(@href), HREF)
  212%       ==
  213%
  214%   Suppose we have a table containing  rows where each first column
  215%   is the name of a product with a   link to details and the second
  216%   is the price (a number).  The   following  predicate matches the
  217%   name, URL and price:
  218%
  219%       ==
  220%       product(DOM, Name, URL, Price) :-
  221%           xpath(DOM, //tr, TR),
  222%           xpath(TR, td(1), C1),
  223%           xpath(C1, /self(normalize_space), Name),
  224%           xpath(C1, a(@href), URL),
  225%           xpath(TR, td(2, number), Price).
  226%       ==
  227%
  228%   Suppose we want to select  books   with  genre="thriller" from a
  229%   tree containing elements =|<book genre=...>|=
  230%
  231%       ==
  232%       thriller(DOM, Book) :-
  233%           xpath(DOM, //book(@genre=thiller), Book).
  234%       ==
  235%
  236%   Match the elements =|<table align="center">|= _and_ =|<table
  237%   align="CENTER">|=:
  238%
  239%       ```prolog
  240%           //table(@align(lower) = center)
  241%       ```
  242%
  243%   Get the `width` and `height` of a `div` element as a number,
  244%   and the `div` node itself:

  248%       ==
  249%

  251%   used in cases like the following:
  252%
