 Jeni/Mike, thanks for that, I'm glad my understanding was correct. I had a
quick check with Oracle 2.0.2.9, Instand Saxon 5.3.2 & 5.5.1 and MSXML (prod
version). These were the results for just the first test :
a. test="$set1 > $set2" (should give false)
Ora Saxon 532 551 MSXML3
Without 'abc' True False False False
With 'abc' True True True False
Just in case I'm doing something really stupid in my test I have included it
below :
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
>
<xsl:variable name="set1" select="/dummy/set1/value"/>
<xsl:variable name="set2" select="/dummy/set2/value"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML><BODY>
<BR />a. Node set 1 > Node set 2 =
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$set1 > $set2">True</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>False</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
<BR />b. Node set 2 > Node set 1 =
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$set2 > $set1">True</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>False</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</BODY></HTML>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I did notice that Saxon returns a string value of 'NaN' as '1' which might
explain the result.
