William - Could you please let me know in what situation you had to use XPath? 
For me, I have a input field which
gets a dynamic dropdown values as I type (AJAX with XMLHttpRequest and 
XMLResponseText), which I can select.
I can see with Firebug that the following is happening, but how do I get the 
value that I want to select for the
input field.

The place where it shows "Elma Axtell" is where I am typing and it retrieves 
all the possible values using Ajax
dynamically. The XPath expression to the left shows the possible choices. How 
do I narrow it to the one I want
to pick since there are no attributes there that I can use. You can see that in 
the HTML of the Firebug window.
Once I select the value here, the hidden field associated with the input field 
gets the id of the selected value.

I would really appreciate it if you could point me to the right direction. I 
have attached couple of snapshots of the
application, so you know what I am referring to.

Thanks,
--Harman

You can use xpather to find xpaths (it is a firefox extension) although I 
generally don't like them as they are absolute xpaths instead of relative, 
which is more robust.  I got most of my XPath knowledge from this site: 
http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/default.asp  XPath is very powerful and has 
gotten me out of a lot of situations.
