Re: xsl-list Digest 22 Jan 2005 06:10:00 -0000 Issue 3

i am using this duplicate removing xsl script:
<xsl:template match = "/">
 <!-- predicate to avoid node ABC... group repetition -->
 <xsl:apply-templates select="/xml/el[not(node=following::node)]">
   <xsl:sort select="node" />
 </xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="el">
 <xsl:value-of select="node">-<xsl:call-template
name="XXX"><xsl:with-param name="node" ><xsl:value-of select="node"
/></xsl:with-param></xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="XXX">
 <!--
 when using:
 <xsl:for-each
select="/xml/el[node=$node]/rel/el/node[not(text()=following::text())]">
 the first predicate is not accounted for, and all XYZ are visible and i
get this:
       A-Y
       B-X
       C-Z

 and if i use this axe:
 <xsl:for-each
select="/xml/el[node=$node]/rel/el/node[not(text()=following-sibling::text())]">
 i get again all with duplicates:
       A-XXY
       B-XZZ
       C-Z

 when i use no last predicate:
 <xsl:for-each select="/xml/el[node=$node]/rel/el/node">
 intra-class ABC duplicates remain:
       A-XXY
       B-XZZ
       C-Z
 -->
   <xsl:value-of select="text()">
 </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

any idea on what's the reason for this behaviour of predicate [node=$node]
(i tried keys with the same result)

thanks
