This document summarizes XPath functions for selecting elements in an XML document. It describes functions such as contains, starts-with, text(), following, preceding, descendant, following-sibling, preceding-sibling, child, parent, self, and ancestor that can be used to locate elements based on attributes, text content, position, and relationships between elements. It also provides examples of how to use these functions with XPath expressions to select elements on a web page.
