You mentioned you needed to do some filtering--is this because you
only want some previous Accrual nodes counted?
In this case, this won't work because those nodes filtered-out nodes
will start appearing.

Yes of course, sorry for being so thick. I see that and understand the
problem. But I am having
trouble finding a solution:
What I want to do is to count the total number of Accrual nodes that precede
the current Accrual
node. Both the siblings of the current Accrual node and any Accrual children
of all preceding
Accruals nodes.
I have tried this:
<xsl:for-each
select="expensys:Lines/expensys:Line/expensys:Accruals/expensys:Accrual">
<txn:PSIBS>
<xsl:number value="count(preceding-sibling::*)"/>
</txn:PSIBS>
I cannot use a filter on the for-each loop 'cos AFAICS this would mean
restructuring the whole
transform. With my current level of XSL knowledge that would take an
unacceptably long time :-)
Many thanks for any help....
Adam

well you haven't shown any sopurce code, so we have to guess, but
presumably you get 0 bcause there are no preceding siblings.
that is children of the same parent. If each Accruals element just has
a single Accrual child, then that will be the case.
I know could use "position()", but after I solve this problem I need to
apply a filter to the PSIBS
value.
Most likely you just need to do the filter before you use position.
<xsl:for-each
select="expensys:Lines/expensys:Line/expensys:Accruals/expensys:Accrual[some
filter goes here">
<txn:PSIBS>
<xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
</txn:PSIBS>
