Any ideas how I can find out what the position of the current node is in a
foreign node set? (As opposed to the position in the current node set)

Hi,


I think you can use 'count()' and 'preceding::' (or 'preceding-sibling::') for that purpose.
try: count($B/*[...]/preceding::*)


were '...' would be something like 'current() = .'
