> The inconsistency may seem clearer now, I hope. Not really. It's not at all clear why you expect self::{$name} to mean anything in xpath when {} is never used in any oethr xpath construct. Do you find it surprising that you can't use a string valued variable in C or java as a function name? If you have a function f in C then you have to go f(1,2,3) you can't ho x="f"; x(1,2,3) It's not impossible to design a language with those semantics but it's not at all usual, and there is nothing inconsistent in xpath here is there?
