[xsl] dereferencing count() within comparison test

["Andrew Maclean" <andyjmaclean@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

I have a problem dereferencing the value of the count() function.  Testing 
shows that count() evaluates to 5, and that $paramCount evaluates to 1 in 
the following code snippet.  The loop is not enetered into, however.

     <xsl:when test="$paramCount &lt; 
number(count(exsl:node-set($A)/derivedType)+1) ">

I can copy and paste the syntax from "(count(exsl" into a select and find 
out that it is indeed 5, but putting it together with the  "&lt;" comparison 
seems to make it non-numeric.  Could some one please tell me why?

Thanks a lot,

Mr Andrew Maclean
