Bruce,

At 01:07 PM 5/20/2005, you wrote:

Well I'm obviously not understanding something about context switching
here then, because this yields the same result as my previous example:

  <xsl:function name="bib:footcite" as="xs:string">
    <xsl:param name="footciteable" as="element()"/>
    <xsl:for-each select="$footciteable">
      <xsl:number level="any" select="."/>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:function>

But there's no "count" attribute on that xsl:number instruction to tell it to number footnotes and citations together. Accordingly, by default it's only counting elements of the same type as the context node. :-)

In XSLT 2.0 the select="." should let to skip the for-each (as you had it before) but you still need count="footnote|citation[not(ancestor::footnote)]".

Cheers,
Wendell
