Hi everybody,
I can not manage to make the deep-equal function work with the node()
function.
I am usting the following template:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="deep-equal(body/selection/node(),
body/original/node())">true</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>false</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
With the following XML as input:
<body>
<selection>
<z color="blue" flavor="vanilla">test 1</z>
</selection>
<original>
<z color="blue" flavor="vanilla">test 1</z>
</original>
</body>
The output of this is "false" (although I expected "true"). The strange
thing is that when using the following template the output is "true":
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="deep-equal(body/selection/z,
body/original/z)">true</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>false</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
So there is probably something wrong with how I use the node() function.

Hi there,
Yes, that was it. I now implemented Saxon and at least I can run the
application. I will play around with the stylesheet a bit more to see if
I can manage to get it to work...
