Hi Folks,
The XSLT 3.0 specification introduces a new function for obtaining the
attributes on a node, fn:attributes.
fn:attributes has some desirable properties that @* does not have:
Unlike the attribute axis, @*, the
fn:attributes function returns atomized
attribute values, which cannot be
used as the base for uncontrolled
navigation around the document.
Huh?
What does that mean? How does @* enable "uncontrolled navigation around the
document." What does that mean? Would you provide an example to illustrate
this "uncontrolled navigation" please?
/Roger
