Re: Complex for-each comparison problem

It's not the original xml file, but it's a simplified example of it.
It's well-formed, checked with xmlspy.

I have some questions:

What do you mean with "nameofyourunnamedelement"?

What is the "/@s" at the end?

Why "@value", i thought you get the content of an CDATA field with "value" simply.

Thanks
Sven
