Hi Ken,
I'm sorry or the lack of precision.
I'm stuck with XSLT 1.0 (ASP.NET) and worse, what I'm after is to get a list
of <set ... > nodes with the SelectNodes method of an XmlDocument.
I guess I might have to get these elements another way.
Thanks,
Raymond

Given the following xml, I'd like to get the 0803 (last) section's set

<application>
<section id="0802">
<set key="jazz" value="4" />
<set key="pop" value="61" />
<set key="rock" value="43" />
</section>
<section id="0803">
<set key="jazz" value="2" />
<set key="vocal" value="2" />
</section>
</application>
In this case:
jazz
vocal
pop
rock
This is one function call in XSLT 2 and some preparatory work in XSLT
1. You don't say what governs the order.
Examples are below ... I hope this helps.
