RE: [xsl] Benefits of xsl.sequence

Jesper,

One simple answer is that it allows multi-step processing. You can call 
apply-templates and store the result in a variable. The contents of the 
variable is reusable in further apply-templates and for-eaches, without the 
need to call parser-dependent implementations of node-set functions.

Kind regards,
Geert

Subject: [xsl] Benefits of xsl.sequence

Hi

I understand the benefits of sequences in XSLT 2.0 when they
work like arrays, and I understand the difference between
xsl:value-of creating a text node and xsl:sequence creating
atom values. But do we have good examples proving that the
last in many situations like in xsl:function is much more
efficient or have other benefits?


Best regards,
Jesper Tverskov
