<pb/> elements can mark a page break in different positions in the TEI structure. //pb/position() gives me the positional number of all of the page breaks, 1 thru n. and something like (//pb)[position()=3] gives me the third page, for example. But I want to process the document thru the identity transform, with only a different template for the page breaks. And I need, in the context of that template, to get the page number in the sequence. In that context <xsl:variable name=bposb select=bposition()b /> gives me a number : I donbt know what that number is relative to, as I canbt detect the pattern, but itbs definitely not the absolute sequence number I want. I canbt figure out how to do this. Is there a way to get that value within the template ? I was thinking I could find some xpath expression using the self:: axis, but so far that has eluded me. The larger task Ibm trying to do is to match up the <pb> elements in a TEI file with page-images in another XML file by page sequence. b Steve Majewski / UVA Alderman Library
