Re: text values of nodes

Hi  Todd,

>From your email it is not clear what exactly are you trying to do. If you
want to count the number of group nodes with specific value then following
statement should do -

<xsl:value-of select="count(group[normalize-space(text())='abc'])"/>

If you want to get a node set of group nodes with certain value - you can do
something like

<xsl:for-each select="group[normalize-space(text())='abc']"> .......
</xsl:for-each>
