Re: Predicate not allowed on root matching template match pattern

2005-08-26 09:10:15

Is it wrong to use multiple root matching templates in this way?

yes. in XPath 1 / (like .) are defined (probably by mistake:-)
as _complete steps_ so you can't have /[] or .[].

This is true both in Xpath expressions and in xslt match patterns.

<xsl:template match="/[$testing]">

is doubly wrong as you can't have variables in xslt1 patterns either.

xslt2 is your friend:-)
