well the xpath's you state are valid xpath's but whether or not they
should generate any non empty string as a result depends on the input
document...

they should work if yy has an id attribute of type ID attribute and your
input looks like  

<yy id="test">
  <xx yyy="foo">bar</xx>
</yy>

you should get path="bar" and path="foo"  respectively.
