Hi,
At 01:46 AM 10/2/2007, you wrote:
About my original advice, I really don't know if XSLT 1.1 has
dropped the tedious RTF, but if they did, you can use the pipeline
technique I presented tp make your overall matching process easier.
Otherwise, just as with 1.0, you'll have to resort to node-set
extension functions (which can get heavy).
IIRC, XSLT 1.1 included a node-set() function, so you still had to
call a function explicitly, it's just that it wasn't an extension function.
Of course, since 1.1 was never approved, node-set() never became an
XSLT function. Formally speaking, XSLT 1.1 isn't any sort of
"standard". It's safer to regard it as a set of extensions, which
overlap in functionality with proprietary and other non-proprietary
extensions (EXSLT) and which may or may not happen to have been
implemented in any given XSLT engine.
Cheers,
Wendell
