Thanks. I was writing a few examples of XPath 2.0 for a Wrox book. Hopefully
the fix will be part of the general release by the time it's published.

Subject: Problem with matches in XPath 2.0
Dear All
I'm having a problem with the matches() function, probably
due to misreading the literature. I'm using Saxon.NET version 8.
The following stylesheet needs only a dummy XML input. I was
expecting the case-insensitive match to work.
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<h3>String handling</h3>
<xsl:variable name="sentence" select="'I love Paris in
the spring'"/>
Case-sensitive match against 'paris': <xsl:value-of
select="matches($sentence, 'paris')"/><br/>
Case-insensitive match against 'paris': <xsl:value-of
select="matches($sentence, 'paris', 'i')"/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I get false against both matches.
Thanks for your help
Joe
