given:
require 'rubygems'
require 'nokogiri'
value = Nokogiri::HTML.parse(<<-HTML_END)
"<html>
<body>
<p id='para-1'>A</p>
<div class='block' id='X1'>
<h1>Foo</h1>
<p id='para-2'>B</p>
</div>
<p id='para-3'>C</p>
<h2>Bar</h2>
<p id='para-4'>D</p>
<p id='para-5'>E</p>
<div class='block' id='X2'>
<p id='para-6'>F</p>

I want to do something like what I can do in Hpricot:
divs = value.search('//div[@id^="para-"]')
1) how to do a pattern search for elements in xpath style? 2) where would I find the documentation to help me? I didn't see this in the rdocs
