But I haven't used xslt1 for decades. David Can you suggest maybe a small XSLT that uses "function-available('exslt:node-set')" that I could use to check if whatever is doing the processing supports the node-set function? > > Then, I could try running that test XSLT under xsltproc on linux to test > the test and then after that also try to run the test on the product, to > determine whether or not the node-set function is available? > > Per the links I included in my original post, I think I need to confirm > that node-set function is available to be able to try to use the code that > was suggested in the stack overflow threads... > > Jim > > > > On Wednesday, August 7, 2024 at 12:13:52 PM EDT, David Carlisle > d.p.carlisle@xxxxxxxxx <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > seems like only yesterday on this list I advertised > > http://dpcarlisle.blogspot.com/2007/05/exslt-node-set-function.html > > to make exslt:node-set work seamlessly on systems that supported it and > systems that had a similar function in a different namespace > > David (a greyer version) > > > > On Wed, 7 Aug 2024 at 16:48, Martin Honnen martin.honnen@xxxxxx < > xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > On 07/08/2024 17:36, ohaya ohaya@xxxxxxxxx wrote: > > > > From those threads above, it sounds like what I thinking of doing is > POSSIBLE, but one of the requirements is the availability of an extension: > > ext:node-set > > So I wanted to find out: > > a) How can I check that the XSLT processor supports that extension?
