Answer from AI

The main axes (axes) in XPath used for navigating through an XML document include:

  • child — selects the child elements of the current node
  • parent — selects the parent node
  • descendant — selects all descendants (children, grandchildren, etc.)
  • ancestor — selects all ancestors (parents, grandparents, etc.)
  • following-sibling — selects all sibling nodes after the current one at the same level
  • preceding-sibling — selects all sibling nodes before the current one at the same level
  • self — selects the current node
  • descendant-or-self — selects the current node and all its descendants
  • ancestor-or-self — selects the current node and all its ancestors

These axes allow flexible navigation through the XML structure to select the desired elements or attributes.
