Hello! I'm fairly new to XSLT and have been trhown in the deep end here. :p I have a problem I've been beating my head against a wall over for a couple of days, so now that it's good and bloody I've found this mailing list. In a nutshell, I have "item" nodes that have three sub nodes: name, type and status. I'm trying to create a node set that only contains different nodes. The problem I'm running into is I seem to be losing nodes that I shouldn't. I'm using the following to select the nodes: <xsl:for-each select="items/item[not(name = preceding-sibling::*/name and type = preceding-sibling::*/type and status = preceding-sibling::*/status)]"> An example from the XML might be: truck,silverado,chevy,on truck,silverado,chevy,off truck,ranger,ford,on truck,silverado,chevy,on truck,silverado,chevy,off >From that I want to see the first three in a node set. However, what I'm getting are the second and third ones. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Chris XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
