Oops, your right, that would convert each node to a string before comparing. I use this test in some of my stylesheets, but each node has a unique id and I compare these ids. What you should do if you don't have unique ids is to use: <xsl:if test="generate-id(.) = generate-id(ancestor::chapter[1]//section[position()=last())]"> Of course, if you are transforming to fo or html, I would use style attributes to indicate the extra space. There are multiple ways to specify this kind of style. If you are transforming to plain text, then I would recommend the above or using apply-templates with a with-parameter modifier for the last section. The apply-templates is a bit wordy, but very efficient.
