As soon as I have time I will reference the spec (unless any of the above or others who know the specific answer chime in before I get to it) and see if I can found the exact answer... XPath 1.0 Section 3.4 "When neither object to be compared is a node-set and the operator is <=, <, >= or >, then the objects are compared by converting both objects to numbers and comparing the numbers according to IEEE 754." And "2004-11-15" is not a number, so the cast to a number results in NaN ... which, BTW, doesn't compare true in any comparison with anything, including itself. I hope this helps. ........................... Ken -- World-wide on-site corporate, govt. & user group XML/XSL training. G.
