Use the 'selectNode' method of the dom::DOMImplementation
or dom::node command.  The former is mainly for absolute
paths, the latter for relative paths.

I'll be giving a tutorial covering this at the upcoming
Tcl conference in Vancouver, so the best thing to do
would be to enrol in the TclDOM tute.

However, I am currently updating the Zveno course materials
for the course so examples will be online soon - probably
after the conference.

In the meantime, try something like:

dom::DOMImplementation selectNode $doc {/Example/value/text()}

HTHs,
