This transformation:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:variable name="vColors" select="/*/colors"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:for-each select="/*/*/picture">
      <xsl:if test="count($vColors/*[. = current()/color]) >= 2">
        <xsl:value-of select="concat('Picture Id=', @sample, '&#xA;')"/>
      </xsl:if>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

when performed against the originally posted source xml document,
produces the wanted result:

Picture Id=2
Picture Id=4
Picture Id=5

Nice.


It doesn't have to de-duplicate because it is able to assume there are no duplicates among the colors listed in $vColors.

This could be further compressed, too:

<xsl:apply-templates
  select="/*/*/picture[count($vColors/*[. = current()/color]) >= 2]" />

(with a template matching the picture)

Always more to learn....

Thanks, Dimitre!

Cheers,
Wendell
