To test whether the grandparent block is the first block child of its parent, do
test="not(../parent::block/preceding-sibling::block)"

Unfortunately, I need the template to match on the register
and then test to see if the grandparent is the 1st element of
its type.
Thanks

you might try
xsl:template match="blocks/block[1]/register[1]"
or if you need the xsl:choose sytntax, i'm sure someone will
post a fine example of the preceding-sibling::axis.

Subject: [xsl] Confounded by grand-parents
Hello:
Here's the xml I'm working with:
<blocks>
<block>
<registers>
<register/>
<register/>
</registers>
</block>
<block>
<registers>
<register/>
<register/>
</registers>
</block>
</blocks>
I want to process a register node if:
1. It is the first register node and
2. Its block grandparent is the first block node.
Here's what I've come up with so far, but it isn't working.
<xsl:template match="register">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="parent::*[position()=1]/parent::* and
position()=1">
Can someone clear up my thinking here?
Cheers
