Hi,
    Can you read my mail again.

In your code,
 ../parent::node(.) should be name(../parent::node()) though Iam not
comfortable with the construct ../parent::node() yet. But I suppose you
don't have a choice as you may not know the name of the node beforehand in
which case you don't need this test in the first place.

or use DC's suggestion

<xsl:if test="../parent::node() = self::Dynamic1">
....

Note that I have not used single quotes around Dynamic1 as I did earlier as
this is a node comparison as opposed to the string comparison I did
earlier.

Cheers,
Omprakash.V

Sorry still some problems.

So I tried Omprakash and your solution to checking a node name as well
as accessing the node from a grand-child into one but there are problems
with my syntax. Here is what I tried

<xsl:if
test="../parent::node(.)=..//preceding-sibling::A/Class/text()"><!
--Checking 
if the ancestor node equals the A/Class text. -->
         <here>nfhg</here>
</xsl:if>

Tried this as well
<xsl:variable name="AValue" select="..//preceding-sibling::A/Class/text
()"/>
<xsl:if test="../parent::node(.)=$AValue"><!--Checking if the ancestor
node equals the A/Class text. -->
         <here>nfhg</here>
</xsl:if>

Am I at a  tangent from the right solution and what is it ?

Thanks
Rahil
