In 2.0, you can use the comparison operators < and > (or lt, gt) to compare strings, so there's a much wider range of possibilities. In fact, the solution you provide for numbers: Elements/Element[. < preceding-sibling::node()] will do a string comparison rather than a numeric comparison in 2.0. It's wrong, however: you should write Elements/Element[. < preceding-sibling::*[1]] Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
