RE: select nodes only one level with same name

Can't comment on whether it's a 'Microsoft extension' because I have
only used their parser stuff. As to where it came from, I just tried it
one day and it worked, and I never found anything very explicit in the
XSL 1.0 draft that said it shouldn't.

Admittedly, now you've drawn my attention to it, I can see that Appendix
A *doesn't* allow it - both in XSL and XSLT - so I absolutely promise
that I will never, ever, use it again.

Honest.

Regards,

Mark

PS I shall miss it. I think it keeps things quite neat.
