Re: knowing the position of certain node

You can just count the element on the preceding-sibling axis and add 1 to
that, for instance:
<xsl:value-of select="1 + count(row[field2='yes']/preceding-sibling::*)"/>

Subject: [xsl] knowing the position of certain node


Hi all..

I have this sample XML:

<test>
  <row>
    <field1>this</field1>
  </row>
  <row>
    <field1>is</field1>
  </row>
  <row>
    <field1>a</field1>
    <field2>yes</field2>
  </row>
  <row>
    <field1>test</field1>
  </row>
</test>


If I use <xsl:value-of select="row[field2 = 'yes']" /> I get all the third
"row" field values. How can I know the position of the found node? for
example, in that case, I want 3 to be printed on screen, something like
"position(row[field2 = 'yes'])"

Thanks
Jaime
