Anything you see in an attribute named "select" or "test" is an XPath
expression.

Subject: [xsl] XPath expressions

Processing language must incorporate a declarative query 
syntax for selecting the data that needs to be processed. In 
SQL, that's the SELECT statement. In XSLT, the equivalent is 
the XPath expression.

--Book from Micheal Kay

Means we have to pass single quotes within double quotes like this.
Is this method called the XPath expression?

<xsl:template name="str:tokenize">
    <xsl:param name="args" select="'$args'" />
    <xsl:param name="delimiters" select="' '" />

It will be surely there in later part of the book.But can 
anyone tell me now which are exactly XPath expressions?
