Thanks Ken:
Your example reinforces my theory that I was going
to have to rewrite the current model and use the 'for-each'.
I was trying to avoid rewriting some complex models but I
I guess there isn't an easy way of looking back at the
parent, then the immediate preceding node without the template
being in the parent node.
Betty, I can't see why not.
Your test expression,
<xsl:if test="../b[(_at_)name='cde']/preceding-sibling::b[1]/@name='abc'">
looks like it should work, assuming that the context node
is a child of <b>, e.g. if it's in a template that matches "c" elements.
Maybe if you showed more of your xslt code we could see why you're
never getting a 'true'.
