RE: xpath problem

Hi Kit,

don't know about Xalan parameters, sorry. In the first case what's happening
is that the * in 
	parent[child=*] 
actually means ./*  - ie any child node, so of course it works. 
But if you rewrite  
	parent[child/grandchild=*] 
as  
	parent[child/grandchild=./*] then you can see pretty quick why it's
not working.
