hi,

Let me recommend Purple Technology's XPath Explorer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/xpe/)

I copied your XML to a file, opened it in XPath Explorer, and determined
this XPath in a few seconds.:
  //record/field/../field[1]

or in expanded form:
  /descendant-or-self::node()/child::record/child::field/parent::node()/child::field[1.0]

this looks hideous




This may not be the most efficient XPath, but it is a good starting point.




I just noticed a cut & paste error in my code. I had:


<xsl:if test="not(@id=preceding-sibling::field[1]/@id)">

I was going to use a variable to save line space, but then switched back but did not get the '$.' It is probably obvious but it should be:

<xsl:if test="not(@id=preceding-sibling::field[1]/@id)">

        <xsl:value-of
         select="/document/configure/server/resultfield[@id=$id]"/>
