You haven't shown us what $lessonFile is, but my guess is that it's a
singleton document node. If that's true, then position() and last() are both
1, so position()!=last() is false.
Did you want the newlines between the things copied by the xsl:copy-of,
perhaps?

Subject: [xsl] using position() and last() with join
I am attempting to insert a return ( ) after each element
but the last of a node set generated by a join. I am building
a table in which one or more lesson names will be pulled
into the right-hand cell of each row. The join works fine.
Here is the part of the stylesheet in question:
<xsl:for-each-group select="current-group()/SS"
group-by="."> <!--left-hand cell text selected from main xml
document-->
<Cell aid:table="cell" aid:crows="1" aid:ccols="1"
aid:ccolwidth="342.5">
<xsl:copy-of select="node()"/>
</Cell>
<!--right-hand cell; nodes from $lessonFile-->
<Cell aid:table="cell" aid:crows="1" aid:ccols="1"
aid:ccolwidth="197.">
<xsl:variable name="skillNumber"
select="current-group ()/../@skill"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$lessonFile">
<xsl:copy-of
select="key('lessonName_by_num', $skillNumber)/child::node()" />
<!--the if statement below does nothing here or directly
above the copy-of line-->
<xsl:if test="position() != last()">
<xsl:text> </xsl:text> </xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</Cell>
</xsl:for-each-group>
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
