Hi Bill. 

As far as I know, no-one has done any work on the XPath support since the 
last release, so yes, it's still broken on IE6.

Interestingly, I don't get that Object Expected error, so it seems to be 
breaking for you in a different way.  When I run TestLocators (IE 
6.0.2800.1106, Apache2), I see the following problems: 

| verifyText | //a[2] | this is the second element | 

This fails, as the expression locates the third element, rather than
the second.  This off-by-one error is a known problem. 

| verifyAttribute | //a[@href='#id1']/@class | a1 | 

Fails, with no error. 

| verifyAttribute | document.links[0]@class | a1 | 

Doesn't run!

I'd rather that we removed XPath :-)
