Re: [xsl] [XSL]Display Different Results Based on Count of NodeSets

[David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx>]

<xsl:template match="title">
       <xsl:choose>
           <xsl:when test="position() ='1'"/>


beware that that test will be true just if the current node is the first
node in the current node list, which is a property of the stylesheet,
not of the node itself.

You (still) haven't posted a complete stylesheet so i have to guess, but
if for example this template is executed by

<xsl:apply-templates/>

and your input looks like
<book>
<title>...

then the test will never be true, as the first node selected is a text
node (that just has a newline) so the first title will have
position()=2.
