Dave,

Are you accounting for those pesky whitespace-only text nodes?

Cheers,

I'm having a problem understanding the use of node() in a pattern.

given a simple file (pretend no whitespace)
<doc>
  <nd1> ..</nd1>
    <nd2>..</nd2>
    <nd3/>
  </nd1>
</doc>
I believe I can get to any node using a node based pattern,
e.g. <xsl:template match='/node()[1]/node()[2]'>
should match on nd3
but my theory isn't working out.
