No, that's the point about current() . changes it's value in each step but current() keeps it's value over the whole XPath expression. > Is "/" ALWAYS the root element?

It selects the root node of the document containing the current node, there may be more than one document in the picture though. > <xsl:for-each select="/foo/bar/baz[@*]"> that selects all baz elements that have any attribute, your example inout didn't have any attributes so it would select nothing.
