$doc
= new DOMDocument;

$doc->load('book.xml');

$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);

$tbody = $doc->getElementsByTagName('tbody')->item(0);

// our query is relative to the tbody node
$query = 'count(row/entry[. = "en"])';

$entries = $xpath->evaluate($query, $tbody);
echo
"There are $entries english books\n";

this class can substitute the method evaluate while it is not validated. Made for Yuri Bastos and Joo Gilberto Magalhes.

The DOMXPath::evaluate() method will not be available before v.5.1 (see bug database #31593). Only query() is available, which cannot evaluate all XPath expressions,such as count() or not().
