Re: [xsl] count() problem

[Mukul Gandhi <mukulgandhi2003@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is another solution using the node-set function. 

<xsl:template match="/root/nodes">
  <xsl:variable name="rtf">
    <xsl:for-each select="*">
	<xsl:if test="text() != ''">
	  <a/>
	</xsl:if>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:variable>
		
  <xsl:value-of
select="count(vendor:node-set($rtf)/a)" />
</xsl:template>

Regards,
Mukul
