device: A number that represents the sequence number of the I/O device in the current task.

element path: A string that represents the path of an XML element. The syntax is:
/element name[[index]] [/element name[[index]]...]

where:

element name is the name of an XML element. You can assign an alias to the element name. The alias is separated from the element name by a colon symbol (:), for example, al1:My_Element.

index is the index of a specified occurrence of an element that has multiple occurrences. The index value must be greater than 0. Negative values are invalid.

attribute name: The name of an XML attribute that is the attribute of the multi-occurrence element name. Its value is compared to the Value parameter.

Returns:

The number of occurrences of that element in the specified path. Returns 0 if the XML parsing path was not completed, or if the requested element does not exist.
