jQuery-XPath 1.1

================

Determine the XPath of an element with jQuery.

Usage

-----

Just download the sourcecode, upload the file to your webspace and load it. Obviously [jQuery](http://jquery.com/) is required.

```html

```

To get the XPath of an element simply call ```.xpath()```. Please note that only the first element in jQuerys list of matched elements is considered. If the given element has an ```id``` attribute, the XPath plugin will use it.

```javascript

$('form input[type=email]').xpath();

// Returns: //*[@id="email"]

```

If you don't want the ```id``` attribute to be considered, pass ```true``` as the first parameter.

```javascript

$('form input[type=email]').xpath(true);

// Returns: /html/body/section/form/div[2]/div/input

```
