That's excellent, thanks very much..
It's was helpful to know I was on track and especially good to crack it late
on a Sunday night.. feel like I've made a small step in the right direction.
<xsl:if test="not($matching)"> now gives me new rss feed I haven't seen..
:)

Subject: Re: [xsl] no input from document()?
<xsl:variable name="matching" select="$B[(_at_)xmlUrl = $feed]" />
so matching will hold one or more outline elements, each of which is
empty, so string($matching) is going to be ""
so you don't want to do
<xsl:if test="string($matching) != string($feed)">
possibly you want to do
<xsl:if test="$matching">
incidentally you never need to start a match with // (it does not change
the elements matched, only their default priority) also (although I
suppose this is out of your control), the attribute name should not be
xmlUrl
as names begining with xml are reserved for future use in core xml
specs. (which is why xmlns could suddenly be defined to have a magic
meaning as a namespace declaration)
