Perhaps you are looking something is the line of:
(descendant::*|following-sibling::*|ancestor::*[count(ancestor::s|$sentence) = 1]/following-sibling::*/descendant::*)/@type


Not so much that as the fact that it appears to be ignoring the
test count(ancestor::s|$sentence)=1 because it is processing
all following:: elements in the document instead of being limited
to those within the same sentence as the context element.

Hmmm, yes, that is probably true. If there is no ancestor::s, then the count is still 1. I've always preferred the variant: generate-id(ancestor::s[1]) = generate-id($sentence). That should give better results..


Cheers,
