The node is the one you call the selectNodes/selectSingleNode method on, 
if you call
   xmlDocument.selectNodes
then the XPath is relative to the document node but each node implements 
the method as well so you can somehow select a node and then call
   node.selectNodes
again to select stuff within that node.
