I think that using the same method as you'd use in XSLT 1.0 would
work:
count(preceding::loc[(_at_)hl = $context/@hl and
@side = $context/@side and
@pos = $context/@pos]) + 1
That does it, though I'm curious why your $context works,
and context-item() doesn't? Not the same as current()?
What's not working as I expect is index-of($set,context-item())
since (I guess) it uses typed value, not the node itself?
(Always returns 1)
That's right. The arguments to index-of() are atomised to atomic
values, so you're getting the index of the <loc> element with the same
typed value as the <loc> element you're looking at.
So I can't find index-of (node-set, node) ?
For this instance it would have been useful.
Of course there might be other, better, methods depending on how
you're processing the <loc> elements. For example, perhaps you could
use XSLT 2.0's grouping mechanism to process all the <loc> elements in
the group at once, and then just use position().
There are lots of loc elements with identical attribute values,
only the text content of the element changing.
O date1
date2
date3
is the sort of svg I want.
I'd still want the 'position' in the group, to calculate the Y offset
for the text, so its not an improvement...
<grin/> Unless you know better.
Thanks Jeni.
