Subject: Re: [xsl] expression syntax From: "M. David Peterson" <m.david@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 15 Nov 2004 06:04:31 -0800 |
XPath 1.0 Section 3.4
"When neither object to be compared is a node-set and the operator is <=, <, >= or >, then the objects are compared by converting both objects to numbers and comparing the numbers according to IEEE 754."
And "2004-11-15" is not a number, so the cast to a number results in NaN
... which, BTW, doesn't compare true in any comparison with anything, including itself.
I hope this helps.
