Could someone supply some code that would get the xpath of a System.Xml.XmlNode instance?

Thanks!

Here's a simple method that I've used, worked for me.

    static string GetXpath(XmlNode node)
    {
        if (node.Name == "#document")
            return String.Empty;
        return GetXpath(node.SelectSingleNode("..")) + "/" +  (node.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Attribute ? "@":String.Empty) + node.Name;
    }
