Subject: RE: Grand Unification Theory (XSL/XPointer) From: "Didier PH Martin" <martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 14 Apr 1999 10:08:37 -0400 |
Hi Nantapon, <Comment> Given XSL Pattern "element1//element2", I wondered how I could index it. If I used "element1//element2(1)", It would not show the real position of element2. I have reread the XPointer WD and found that // corresponds to descendant which also use document order. So it won't be problem, anymore. :P So it is great idea to unify XSL Pattern and XPointer. If XSL Select Pattern is subset of XPointer and we can describe match pattern using select pattern, we can adopt XPointer. </Comment> <reply> thanks for the precision. You are right, if one becomes a subset of the other, we would have a sense of unity and of good design. We could then say, Yes, this is improvement :-) I don't know if you know the asterix comics but without this unity, XML would be a house designed by the architect in the asterix in Egypt comic book :-) </reply> regards Didier PH Martin mailto:martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.netfolder.com XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
