Re: [xsl] Subsets

[Abel Braaksma <abel.online@xxxxxxxxx>]

It is not possible to assign anything in XSLT. But you can get get a 
subset in XSLT 2.0 with subsequence($items, $start, $lenght).

There is no such thing as a subset of [2 ... -1], as -1 is not possible 
position, they start at 1. And a range can only be positive, i.e.: (1 to 
3) instead of (3 to 1) (the latter which will result in an empty sequence).
