I'm doing all this with Saxon 8.8J
I have a simple xpath expression like this for $x in (10 to 20) return $x which simply return the sequence of integers between 10 and 20 Now, what if I wanted to return something like this instead from the same sequence 1 2 3 4 ... 11 I want to get access to the "position" of $x in the sequence, and also the total number of items in the sequence. I tried something like this for $x in (10 to 20) return $x/position() which failed because $x was an integer, not a node so it couldn't tell me the position of it... so I tried it out on my "real" code and all it ever outputted was 1's The real problem I'm trying to tackle is simply treating the last one different than all the others to do some special formatting of the list. I figured it would be easy enough to do a position()=last() type check... -- John McGowan Seven A C Consulting, Inc.
