Saxon 6.5.5 returns true true
Xalan returns false true
I would have expected false false. But it's Friday afternoon.
....and the day after the christmas party :-( my head hurts.
You are right - false false for Saxon, false true for Xalan.
Any thoughts on a Xalan alternative approach?
Well, I imagine if they create a namespace node for xmlns="" then it
will have name(.)="" and string(.)="", so you could test for that
combination. A namespace node should never have string(.)="" so you
could just filter out any such nodes.
