Michael,
Thank you for your kind input. I did debate about adding the prefix of "Saxon
Error:" to my subject line. In the end, I decided to add it to help filter out
those not familiar with Saxon. In the future I will refrain from adding
similar prefixes. My intent was not to point a finger at Saxon.
Initially I did put the "or" clause inside the predicate, like you suggested.
Still, I received the same "Error" message.
At this point, I will do some more reading and testing. I'm pretty sure the
problem is with my understanding. Saxon is a great product and has never
proved to be a problem for the last five years I've been using it. So, back to
"XSLT 2.0 and XPath 2.0 4th Ed. Programmer's Reference" by Michael Kay.
Cheers,

Subject: Re: [xsl] Saxon Error: Conditional Transformation Matches BOTH of
"Either/Or" Template

<RLillibridge(_at_)municode(_dot_)com>:
Saxon error message:
Recoverable error
XTRE0540: Ambiguous rule match for /level1/para[44]
Matches both "para[not(@selectout)] | para[contains(@selectout, 'html')]"
I'm at a loss as to how the template matches both conditions at the same
time. From my understanding (which probably leaves much to be desired),
either the para element doesn't have the @selectout attribute or (if it does)
the @selectout attribute contains 'html'.
Raymond,
I have the strong feeling that this is not all of the error message, as I have
only seen it giving you the other match as well…
Anyway, why don't you put the or clause inside the predicate?
match="para[not(@selectout) or contains(@selectout, 'html')]"

PS: If you think this would be a Saxon error you should have directed your
question to the saxon-help list. If you think it is an XSLT problem, please do
not prefix your subject like you did.
