Advantages of using key()?2004-09-23 12:16:04Hello all, What are the advantages of using xsl:key and key()? For instance, instead of using this: <xsl:key name="test" match="/root/child" use="@attrib"/> . . . <xsl:for-each select="key('test', 'special')"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:for-each> why not simply use this: <xsl:for-each select="/root/child[(_at_)attrib='special']"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:for-each> Thanks, Erik
