EDIT: I excluded the 'descendant' portion of the AF calculation to
make this easier to read =)
The 'self' portion is what I'm really concerned with.
Thanks again
I have the following input document:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<a>
<b/>
</a>
...and I am trying to determine why this stylesheet is not behaving
as I would expect:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="a/b">
xsl:number result: (<xsl:number level="multiple" count="a"
from="a"/>)
<xsl:variable name="S" select="."/>
<xsl:variable name="A" select="$S/ancestor-or-self::node()
[local-name() = 'a']"/>
<xsl:variable name="F" select="$S/ancestor-or-self::node()
[local-name() = 'a'][1]"/>
<xsl:variable name="AF" select="$A[count(.|$F) = count($F)]"/>
sequence number should contain: (<xsl:for-each select="$AF">
<xsl:value-of select="1 + count($AF/preceding-sibling::node()
[local-name() = 'a'])"/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>)
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I emit the result of an xsl:number when both the from and count
patterns are the parent of the context node. The result is empty.
However, if I follow the explicit instructions on how to determine
a sequence number, it seems like this should contain a single
integer of value 1.
The output I get from Xalan and Saxon both is:
xsl:number result: ()
sequence number should contain: (1 )
Can anyone help explain why the xsl:number value is not the same as
the hand-computed value?
NOTE: I used a very simple local-name() test in place of a node-
type and node-name test. I realize
this is not the same as matching the pattern "a", but it should
suffice for this example.
