Dimitre,
took me a sec to realize you were refering to page 208 in his XPath
book... I reread the XSLT 2.0 page 208 several times before I
realized "xpath expression = xpath book" :) I'm with you now...
:o)
I find that there's one book on XPath2 now -- the book.
Are you refering to the fact an error is returned if E2 does not
return a sequence of nodes? I guess that doesnt really make a lot of
sense given the above... but does this same rule apply when "/" is
used an an operand instead of a path expression?
No, E2 is allowed to return a sequence of atomic values (not nodes) if
it is the last step in the path expression.
I am referring to the fact that in this case the result is allowed to
be either a sequence of nodes or (exclusive or) a sequence of atomic
values, but not a mixture of the two.
I'm asking again: why?
Cheers,
Dimitre.
