David, I think this is the code you're looking for. <xsl:template match="REPLY-TO-POST"> <xsl:variable name="query"> <xsl:value-of select="CITED-QUESTION"/> </xsl:variable> <xsl:when test="not(preceding::QUESTION[contains(., $query)])"> <xsl:message>Sorry, come again?</xsl:message> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:template> We'll be able to use this as soon as Mulberry gets done testing the new XML-aware, autotagging MetaMail engine, with the prescience support module installed (coming real soon now).
