Re: [xsl] Look ahead in xslt

["Vasu Chakkera" <vasucv@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mike,
In his example, can College be a following-sibling of University????
I think the structure is
<university>
 <college>
     <name/>
     <city/>
  </college>
</university>
It should be *[1][self::college]"> isnt it ??
Thanks
Vasu
