You don't mention which processor you are using but certainly the
surface evidence looks like a bug.
Which tool are you using and what do you get with the following change?
<xsl:comment>
<xsl:text>count: </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="count(//lc:container[lc:item]/@select)"/>
</xsl:comment>
<xsl:comment>
<xsl:text>list of select attributes: </xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="//lc:container[lc:item]/@select">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:comment>
The above will address the nodes using the same address that is being
used for the sum function.
Have you tried your code with any other processors?

I'm not having much success using the sum() function over a node set.
The following two expressions
<xsl:comment>
<xsl:text>sum: </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="sum(//lc:container[lc:item]/@select)"/>
</xsl:comment>
<xsl:comment>
<xsl:text>list of select attributes: </xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="//lc:container[lc:item]">
<xsl:value-of select="@select"/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:comment>
result in the following output:
<!--sum: 0-->
<!--list of select attributes: 2 3 1 -->
I'm not clear why the result of sum() is 0. Are there any other
prerequisites that I'm missing?
Thanks again.
