Short update from me:
Right now I'm converting xpathjs ("http://mcc.id.au/xpathjs";), so it'll
become OpenLaszlo-compatible.
At the moment, XPaths like this one are already working:
(/[EMAIL PROTECTED]|/test[starts-with(text(), "Hello")])/text()
So stay tuned!

Instead of using javascript, have you considered using eXist as a
native backend XML database?
_http://exist.sourceforge.net/_
It is XQuery 1.0 / XPath 2.0 compatible.
There is an old tutorial in the OpenLaszlo forum explaining how to
connect OpenLaszlo client to eXist database.
Try out the eXist sandbox first .....
_http://demo.exist-db.org/sandbox/sandbox.xql_
returns to OpenLaszlo are all XML format.
