[Resolved] JSonPath vs XPath

You can use DefiantJS - which enables XPath queries on JSON structures.

Try the XPath evaluator to become an expert on XPath;

var data = {
    "movie": [{"id": 1, "title": "The Usual Suspects"},
              {"id": 2, "title": "Pulp Fiction"},
              {"id": 3, "title": "Independence Day"}]
     },
     res = JSON.search(data, '//*[id=2]');

console.log( res[0].title );
// Pulp fiction

As you can see, DefiantJS extends the global object JSON with the search method. Check out the documentation for more details.
