Another consideration is that in order for all this to be more compact, easy and elegant, it must be possible to write (in XPath!) expressions like this: func(someFunc, someOtherFunc, $sequence) or (func(someArguments)) (otherArguments) In the first case functions are passed as parameters to func(). In the second case, func() returns a function, which is then applied on otherArguments. Cheers, Dimitre Novatchev. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
