Unfortunately, it is a little vague on which separator token to use with the excess values. It says that a '.' is to be used if no separator token exists, but does this also apply to the case where the final formatting token is re-used with excess sequence values? Here is a quick test I did to try and see how different processors are handling this: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:template match="a/b/c/d"> <xsl:number level="multiple" count="*" format="(1)"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> If my input document is... <?xml version="1.0"?> <a><b><c><d/></c></b></a> ...then Saxon produces this: (1(2(1(1) ...while Xalan produces this: (1.2.1.1) Both answers seem perfectly reasonable to me, given the lack of clarity in the 1.0 spec. Can anyone help me figure out which is (more) correct?
