Either saxon:distinct, or something which will allow us to work in the node-set that we have created in the new context. I'll look to others for suggestions, but I think the principle is valid, especially with its frequency of use. Regards DaveP XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
