I am needing to update a client-side xml file. How do I use XPath in js to save changes?

What do you mean by "save changes"? You can't write to disk using javascript (if that's what you are hoping)... regardless of whether you attempt to use xpaths or not!
Javascript does not natively support xpaths - but there are several projects out there that attempt to do this.
Try google for: xpath+javascript

XPath is primarily a way to locate elements, and AFAIK, has not a lot to do with saving files. So the answer is probably 'no', although as Jeff suggests, a quick Google search would confirm this.
Hope this helps,

I am looking for a means to store more data than cookies can handle. If you have any suggestions for that... I'm interested.
