Re: [xsl] Question on duplicate node elimination

Alain,

XSLTForms is really cool, I like especially xpath.xml.

at what is missing in XSLTForms?

I just added this to the "Node-set" tab of "XPath Functions":
        <xf:output value="count(/data/item/..)">
                <xf:label>count(/data/item/..)
                = </xf:label>
                <xf:help>duplicate elimination test.
                </xf:help>
        </xf:output>
        <br/>

It returns 3 and the correct output should be 1.

That was the reason for my statement:

Hermann,

Can you please send me the corresponding test files so I can have an idea
at what is missing in XSLTForms?

Thanks!
