Re: Find several different attribute values on many e

The performance issue in the first came from running multiple for loops on the
same content, getting down to one for loop has improved the performance.I
agree, I don't understand why changing p to * makes a difference, but it
does.I'll give your suggestion a try in the morning.Content is a bunch of dita
topics of varying lengths and complexity - technical documentation.B  I am
trying to get a distinct list of all the values in those attributes across all
the content and possible elements.Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy

performanceproblems. Is the code above supposed to give better performance or
for adifferent problem? I don't see why matching on * instead of p shouldfail,
other than of course for any children of the first element thatyou match on
and process as you don't process any child nodes.I think you might want to
take a step back and tell us what kind ofinput you have and what kind of
result you want. It is not clear, atleast not now with different code samples
that seem to do different things.If you just want a flat list of distinct
values of all those knowattributes why not do e.g. B 
distinct-values(collection(...)!(.//@audience, .//@platform, .//@props))If you
want to sort them use B  distinct-values(collection(...)!(.//@audience,
.//@platform,.//@props)) => sort()
