*/node() by itself would also result in a set of nodes. yes, the set of grandchildren of the current node. But not(*/node()) works like not(@style) @style also selects a node set. If a function requiring a boolean is passed a node set then the node set is coerced to boolean (true if non empty. false if empty) > where you effectively have "normalize" "-" "space(@name)='x'". foo-bar should never parse as foo - bar - is a name character so you need to tokenise as foo-bar always if you want foo - bar the user must insert white space. You need to detect this is a functioncall by the presnce of the following ( aaa is an abreviated node test child::aaa but aaa() is the function call aaa.
