XPointer

An XPointer can point anywhere in an XML document, not just to an ID attribute (by means of a XPath derived language)..
It is an extension of XPath.

Example of an XPointer

http://www.hello.qq/some/path/to/document.xml#xpointer(foo/bar[position()<=3)
The part after the # is called the XPointer fragment identifier.
the part in the paranthesis is a XPointer expression.
