What to do about it? This depends on whether you want to check if *any* of these attributes contain the keyword, or if *all* of them contain the keyword. The 1.0 code checks if the *first* one of the attributes contains the keyword. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/ > > Using XSLT 1, Saxon8.5.1 returns no error. > > What does that error mean?
