RE: Using not(...a nd ... ) to select nodes

2003-07-10 15:48:48
In order for your code to work, current() in the select 
expression of a for-each loop must refer to the <item> node 
currently being tested for whether it gets selected, right? 
If so, is this the way xsl:for-each / xpath work? I realize 
that INSIDE the for-each, current() refers to the node 
currently being processed, but is that also true in the 
select expression of the for-each? Or does current() there 
refer to the context node outside the for-each?

current() always refers to the node that "." would refer to if you
replaced the whole XPath expression containing the call on current()
with ".".
