Subject: Re: [xsl] Where is 'intersect' Operator Defined in XPath 3? From: "G. Ken Holman g.ken.holman@xxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2022 17:29:08 -0000 |
Perhaps are you missing that the @d would be relative to the results of the LHS instead of the current node?

Isn't this equivalent to just:
B B key('c',@d)B
or am I missing something?
Thanks, Dimitre

Of course, the solution is an updated QuickRef such as Mulberry's Quick References (back in the day), and yes, good examples of this kind of thing are works of art. I hesitate to mention this only because I am not volunteering to do any actual work this time. :-)
But a hand-held printable "Dungeon master's guide" cheat sheet to go with whatever Norm is working on, would be fantabulous (wouldn't it)?

errytech.com>(by Sam, me, Debbie and Tommie?) - evidently, both page-printable and online-browsable forms present actual design problems. Think about how it should look on a handheld device, for example.
Cheers, Wendell

Thatbs certainly the case, therebs a lot of valuable information in the markup that we can use to improve access to the specs.
B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B Be seeing you, B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B norm
