Thanks for the help, Michael,
I just wanted to make sure that I'm not abusing or "hacking" the system.
I'm happy now ;-) (also re-read chapter 2 of your book just to
understand the basics better.)
Have a good evening,
Jacobus
Yes.
There are two ways of calculating the position: <xsl:number/> gives you the
number by counting siblings in the source tree, position() gets it by
counting nodes in the sequence selected by the calling xsl:apply-templates.
In your case, both give the same answer. The position() call is probably
more efficient, but it does create a hidden dependency between the two
template rules, which you may not like.
Regards,
Michael Kay
