Can anybody help me. I want to filter duplicates without use of keys and
preceding-sibling
why?
It's like saying I want to sum 1 2 3 4 without using an addition
operator.
There are real cases when this is simply unavoidable, e.g. trying to get the
distinct-valued nodes from a node-set, containing nodes from more than one
document.
One solution is to use the "make-distinct" template from FXSL. This solution
was first posted in xsl-list a year and a half ago:
