Re: [xsl] Getting a specific element count from a generic match

Hi guys,

Thanks for the suggestions, Jay it worked out very well. Michael, I
get an error when replacing:

 <xsl:variable name="namelist" select="//*[not(name() =
following::*/name())]"/>

with

<xsl:variable name="namelist" select="distinct-values(//*/node-name())"/>

I'm using the new Saxon 8 api for .net. Either or I've got it working
now in my stylesheet. Thank you both for the help.

Spencer

We're talking 2.0 here: you can get all the distinct names using

select="distinct-values(//*/node-name())"

That's O(n log n) rather than O(n^2), and it's also namespace-aware.
