Re: New XT release (19991105)

It *looks* like the line number, but given a file like:

<list>
  <thing id="1"/>
  <thing id="2"/>
  <thing id="3"/>
  <thing id="4"/>
  <thing id="5"/>
</list>

And a stylesheet of:

<list xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
   <xsl:for-each select="//*">
     <xsl:message><xsl:value-of select="@id"/></xsl:message>
   </xsl:for-each>
</list>

I see the message output of:

file:/C:/TEMP/list.xml:1:
file:/C:/TEMP/list.xml:2: 1
file:/C:/TEMP/list.xml:3: 2
file:/C:/TEMP/list.xml:4: 3
file:/C:/TEMP/list.xml:5: 4
file:/C:/TEMP/list.xml:6: 5

So it seems like something else, like some
other kind of node-id other than generate-id()
would give you.
