An idiom I have used in such cases is: <xsl:variable name="g" select="//mets:div[matches(@LABEL, '^Pagina [0-9]+$')]"/> <xsl:template match="*[. intersect $g]/@LABEL"> <xsl:variable name="n" select="f:index-of-node($g, .)"/> where <xsl:function name="f:index-of-node" as="xs:integer*"> <xsl:param name="nodes" as="node()*"/> <xsl:param name="node" as="node()"/> <xsl:for-each select="$nodes"> <xsl:sequence select="position()[current() is $node]"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:function> which still isn't ideal, but it feels a bit better.
