Michael, So, the key runs independent of the number element, and just picks up all occurrences of "Equation", in order, and returns the key value for the matched IdRef value? I added items shown below. The result is a blank. <xsl:key name="kEqn" match="Equation" use="Target" /> <xsl:template match="etd:xRef"> <xsl:apply-templates select="key('kEqn', etd:RefElemID)"/> </xsl:template> Equation and Target are both elements declared within the etd namespace. I tried the template with and without etd: prefixes. tks, jwc -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Michael Kay Sent: Saturday, May 03, 2003 11:02 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Numbered Elements > Still new to XML/XSLT, I am trying to get my arms around the > numbering methods in XML.

There are no error messages. > You have tried to select a child element called "number" and there isn't one. If there were one, you would be selecting it only if its @Target attribute were equal to the string "etd:RefElemId". But Target is not an attribute, it is an element, and the string is not a string, it is an element name - so you seem pretty confused. I think you want <xsl:key name="k" match="Equation" use="Target"/> then <xsl:apply-template select="key('k', etd:RefElemId)"/> though I'm guessing wildly about the namespace.
