Wendell > > <xsl:template match="*" mode="xpath-step"> > <xsl:text>/</xsl:text> > <xsl:value-of select="name()"/> > <xsl:if test="count(../*[name()=name(current())]) > 1"> > <xsl:text>[</xsl:text> > <xsl:value-of > select="count(preceding-sibling::*[name()=name(current())]) + 1"/> > <xsl:text>]</xsl:text> > </xsl:if> > </xsl:template> The schematron sources have several variants of this, targetting different use cases. using name() is fine for human-oriented paths in error reprorting etc, but if you need to execute the paths the problem is thatit uses namespace prefixes from the source file, so you need to bind the same prefixes in the context that the xpath is executed. <xsl:template match="*" mode="xpath-step"> <xsl:text>/*</xsl:text> <xsl:if test="count(../*) > 1"> <xsl:text>[</xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="count(preceding-sibling::*) + 1"/> <xsl:text>]</xsl:text> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> makes xpaths that are a bit less informative to a human reader /*[33] instead of /xhtml:table[2] but don't have a dependency on namespace context. (variants of this generate /*[local-name()='table'][2] or (for xpath 2) /*:table[2] if you want a version which shows the variable name but without namespace dependency) David ________________________________________________________________________ The Numerical Algorithms Group Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales with company number 1249803.
