Actually, I don't need these functions.  It's just that I was looking for a 
logical and, and because I thought that every operator was backed by at least 
one function, I looked for a respective function.  Since I didn't find such a 
function I came to the conclusion that XPath might not provide a logical and.  
When I said that I was missing the corresponding functions, I just wanted to 
explain why I thought that XPath doesn't provide an and.

Best wishes,
