You are right, that will also do it. Thanks for the tip.

My current node is not a C.
Even if I create a
template that will select a C (so now I have C as a current node), I
do not think that I will be able to get things such as the count. What
I need is a way to generate a node-set containing all the B element
under a A element referenced by a C element.
If C is the current node then isn't
<xsl:value-of
select="count(../A[(_at_)name=substring-after(current()/@aRef,':')]/B)"/>
you mean?
To sum over all C then just have a recursive template that traverses the C
nodes, passing teh sum so far as a parameter.
