Subject: position() From: Emmanuel Pietriga <emmanuel.pietriga@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 09:34:15 +0200 |
I just noticed that in XT, position() behaves in this way: if you have a source doc like this: <A> <B>...</B> <C>...</C> <C>...</C> </A> then the xpath expression "A/C[position()=2]" selects the 3rd child of A, not the second one. It selects "the second occurence of C which is a child of A", not "the second child of A with the condition that it is a C element". Is this the correct behaviour? The only way to select the second child of A is "A/*[position()=2]" but in this case you can not be sure that it is a C element (I mean, it requires an xsl:if test="name(*[position()=2])='C']" ) Thanks.
