 Can anyone help me sort of (I don't have a running Saxon around): 1) If the element a is declared with, say, the simple nonatomic IDREFS type as its simpleContent and I have an instance document with <a> foo bar baz</a> and that a element becomes the context node for <value-of select="."/> I should get as output the (one) text node with foo bar baz right? But really, behind the scenes, it was atomized and re-de-atomized :), so I assume that <value-of select="." separator="-ostrich-"/> should get me foo-ostrich-bar-ostrich-baz Is that a complete misunderstanding? If not, well what about: <value-of select="./text()" /> or <value-of select="./text()" separator="-ostrich-"/> My _understanding_ is that they should both just output foo bar baz because text() doesn't atomize, but I am open for any objections. Another one: XSLT2 will validate even temporary trees, right? But will that not make a funny difference sometimes? If the declaration of a was a simpleContent complex type, with an aoptional attribute x with the default value "goat", then I seem to recall that an XSD should add that attribute if it is not there. Does that not mean that <variable name="v1"> <a xsl:validation="strict">foo bar</a> </variable> and <variable name="v2"> <a>foo bar</a> </variable> will behave differently in <some-instruction select="$one-of-the-above/@x"/> --- namely the selection finding asn attribute in one case, and nothing in the other? Finally The document-node(schema-element(rubberduck)) node test is one bastard to analyze (I'm doing static analysis on XSLT): It tests not one, but tow nodes. Are there any great dangers in converting it to document-node()[child::schema-element(rubberduck)] ? A great danger is if the original version, as a pattern, can match something that the rewritten version cannot. Thanks for any help Soren
