Luke,

perhaps your processor supports a node-set() function, many processors
support exslt:node-set(), and msxml has a similar function, i think.

In the example, i assume a processor that supports exslt:node-set.

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
~  xmlns:exslt="http://exslt.org/common";>
<xsl:template match="/">
~  <xsl:variable name='foo'>
~    <bar/>
~    <bar/>
~    <bar/>
~  </xsl:variable>

~  <xsl:value-of select='count(exslt:node-set($foo)/*)'/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

This should return '3' run on an arbitrary xml file.

Regards,
Wolfgang

|
| I.e. you're binding $withname to a Result Tree Fragment
|
|
|><xsl:variable name="numnam" select="count($withname)"/>
|
|
| but count() expects a node-set.
|

|
|
| You're trying to use a function with an argument of a wrong type.
Change the
| definition of $withname to
|
| <xsl:variable name="withname"
|
select="tblMIMCompanies[contains(translate(@name,$upperCase,$lowerCase),tran
| slate($name,$upperCase,$lowerCase))'true']"/>
