RE: Re: [xsl] finding position in list of siblings

You're welcome. For the record, I made a typo when left out the closing square bracket in the predicate. Here is the correct template:

<xsl:template match="BROTHER">
   <xsl:value-of select="count(preceding-sibling::*[name()='BROTHER'])" />
</xsl:template>
