Problem with an XPATH statement in JScript

I'm trying to select a node by it's position number in a JScript statement.  
However, the below line gives me an error:

myInfoNode2 = xmlCourse.selectSingleNode("position()=3");

The error message is:

  Expected token 'eof' found '='.
   position()-->=<--3

It apparently doesn't like my equals sign, I tried escaping it with a "\", 
but then it says that the expression does not return a DOM node.  At least it 
is a different error message!
 

FYI: All this precedes the above statement:

var xmlCourse = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
  xmlCourse.async = false
  xmlCourse.load("course.xml");
  xmlCourse.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath");
