RE: problem with xsl:if

<xsl:if test="../codenet = ../following-sibling::agent/codenet">

the problem with position() is that the context inside a predicate is
different from the context outside the predicate.  xx[position()] is
short for xx[position()=position()] which is the same as xx[true()] (or
just xx). xx[position()+1] is short for xx[position()=position()+1]
which is the same as xx[false()].
