Subject: [xsl] msxml xpath problem
Can anyone tell me why this:
<xsl:value-of select="child::*[2][name()='arg']"/>
and this <xsl:value-of select="child::*[2]"/>
returns the value of the second child, the name of which is arg while
this
<xsl:value-of select="child::arg[2]"/>
if the context was the same I would expect this one to work
and this
<xsl:value-of select="arg[2]"/>, all in the same template
if the context was the same I wouldnt expect this one to work,
does not. Note
that the last example did return the value at one point but
somehow the
context seems to have been lost. There are no templates overriding the
template dealing with this anywhere in my import chain. Is there a bug
with msxml anywhere that would explain such loss of context?
I think we need to see the xml and xslt, to determine if its a node context
issue.
cheers, jim fuller
