yes, if you look at very early drafts of xslt1 you'll see that there was a much more complicated scheme to try to automatically infer priority from match patterns but wisely I think they decided that no scheme that was memorable really automatically captured a natural intuition of which is most specific so apart from one or two really simple cases which get special priorities, everything else gets the same priority, and any pattern involving a / is part of "everything else". david ________________________________________________________________________ The Numerical Algorithms Group Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales with company number 1249803.
