//h2[1]/text() != text()
I think this is a FAQ about the "//" abbreviation.
What you probably need is:
(//h2)[1]/text() != text()
But checking for node identity using the content of the node may
generally be unreliable.
I'd recommend:
generate-id() != generate-id((//h2)[1])
Even this may cause HUGE inefficiency, therefore it is better to
evaluate (//h2)[1] once and define an xsl:variable having this value:
<xsl:variable name="h2ID" select="generate-id((//h2)[1] )"/>
then at the place, where the test is necessary, have:
generate-id() != $h2ID

I've got a bunch of h2's in a document that I want to group at the

Basically, if it's NOT the first h2, it should show a "Back to Top"
link above the h2. I have a test that appears to be exactly what I
need, but it's not working. The basic test is:
//h2[1]/text() != text()
Below is the full XSLT (it's in a template matching h2's).
<xsl:if test="//h2[1]/text() != text()">
<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="//h2[1]/text()"/>
<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
<xsl:text> != </xsl:text>
<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
<xsl:element name="div">
<xsl:attribute name="class">article-top</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:element name="a">
<xsl:attribute name="class">article-top</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="href">#top</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:text>Back to Top</xsl:text>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
Here's my output for my first h2 (which should NOT have a link to top
above it):
"Definition" != "Definition"
Back to Top
Quite annoying ... any ideas? How can 'Definition' not equal
'Definition'?
