Re: Problem with position( ) function

position function example
  Thanks.. but the problem I have is that condition "position() &lt;
  last()" doesn't work because position() gets the position of the last
  node in the XML, and not of the last node with the same agr_id. 

position() _never_ relates to a position in the original tree. It always
refers to a position in the current node list. If that current node list
consists of nodes with a particular ACT_AGR_ID as in the example code
posted, then position() will equal last() on the last of those nodes.
