In my xslt I pick up 3 specific items with 3 separate select statements.


Hi Mark,

Do these 3 select-statements all appear within the same context?

Meaning: if you have the value-of statement as you posted, and before the
next value-of the context is changed, then the XPath-expression

DATA/Table[(_at_)ID='2']/Data/Code[3]

would be an empty nodeset if the context node has no DATA-child (relative
path).

Best to make sure to use the following if your DATA element is the root

/DATA/Table[(_at_)ID='2']/Data/Code[3]

or collect all relevant nodes into a variable using 'position() mod 2' as
condition (like Ken indicated) and apply-templates to or for-each over that
variable.

Cheers,

Andreas
