Re: Implementing XPointer Resolution With saxon:evalua

Also, why does this fail?:

     <xsl:for-each select="$direct-result">
        <xsl:choose>
          <xsl:when test="xindr:indirector">
            <!-- Never gets here -->

When the context node is "xindr:indirector" (as returned by name())? The
corresponding template match does work. Is this a subtle side effect of
name-space processing?

What I can't figure out is how to have the resolve-xpointer template
return the actual nodes referenced, not a copy of them--is this even
possible without writing an extension function that does all the address
resolution? That is, I don't see a way for the value of a template to be
the direct value of a select action, rather than a copy of the value.

However, my implementation of resolve-xpointer uses xsl:copy-of, which
of course isn't going to work because the copy nodes are not the same as
the initial target nodes.

Cheers,
Wendell
