That's not XSLT 2.0 then, is it?

No, it's XPointer support via some homebrewn ECMAScript interface. I found

about mozilla, its funny but I thought the same (incomplete or incorrect 
implementation) my own...

calling for e.g. /*/div[1]/*[position()=0] for a given DOM holds, but the same 
with 3 instead of 0 (which should also hold for my DOM) responds with wrong 
answers

Sorry for asking this question as it already seems to be answered, but is the 
entire XSL support for Mozilla implmented as ECMAScript interface? Because if 
it is and it is "homebrewn" as you mentioned, how can someone know on which 
functionality he can rely on?

Thanks for that - these schemes are all new to me, apart from element
and xmlns.

It sounds like exactly the same spec. as mine, so all I have to do is
add the namespace.

Of course, the most perfect would be an overtime deprecation of the custom
namespace.

Cheers,
