Not having the best day...  this is what I meant to say ....

<stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<template match="//tag1[text()!=''][1]">
	<value-of select="position()"/>
</template>

<template match="text()"/>
</stylesheet>

This will do it (once you fix the closing tags on your <tag1> elements).

<stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<template match="tag1[text()!='']">
	found one
</template>
</stylesheet>

Hello,

Is there a test for finding the position of the first tag that contains
data? The example would be as follows:

<root>
 <tag1/>
 <tag1/> 
 <tag1/>
 <tag1>This one has data</tag>
 <tag1>This one has data</tag>
 <tag1>This one has data</tag>
</root>

So I would like position 4 returned. Thank you

Joe
