Hi
I have a really quick question. What is the abbreviated equivalent of: ../descendant-or-self::node()[generate-id(.) = $node] The XPath docs say that '//' is equivalent to 'descendant-or-self::node()', but if I try ..//[generate-id(.) = $node] I get an error, and ..//*[generate-id(.) = $node] is nearly there, but produces a different effect. What do I use to replace the '*', as I don't want to select the children of '..'s descendants, I want the descendants themselves. '.' doesn't work. It seems to be that '//' is equivalent to 'descendant::node()', ie, 'self' is not included. What am I doing wrong? Regards, Ben. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
