Pattern-based selection can be based on two standards: XSLT, and XPath. Usually, the XPath standard will satisfy your requirements. Since the default is XSLT patterns, you need to change the SelectionLanguage property to XPath. When you want to read the mydvd7.xml file for example, start off your page with the following lines:
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument");
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("mydvd7.xml");
xmlDoc.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath");
Here is mydvd7.xml for your reference:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="mydvd7.xsl"?>
