There's no '>' operator on strings in XPath 1.0.

Although it is a little bit difficult, one may implement the behaviour
of '>' on strings. See for example:

http://topxml.com/code/default.asp?p=3&id=v20020715145424

or

http://www.topxml.com/code/default.asp?p=3&id=v20010205033413

Hope this helped.
