I have found where this statement allows me to get an element named apple regardless of where it is at in the tree. What if I need to get a specific apple.

/fruit/apples/jonathan/apple
as opposed to
/fruit/apples/grannysmith/apple

Can't you simply extend your example?


select="//*[local-name()='jonathan']/*[local-name()='apple']"
