Calling node() is not the same as calling the Element itself Node in Xpath means: element, attribute, text, namespace, processing-instruction, comment, and document (root) nodes. This is the tricky bit you should be careful about when you are using the position() function or calculating the following sibling etc.. Your logic will if there are other elements , or text nodes etc.. the easiest way to explain your problem is to introduce another element after your sixth EVENT , call it will call ONLY EVENT nodes WILL CALL even the NEW-EVENT nodes This is easy identification of problem. It gets tricky when there are invisible nodes like the text nodes. will call ONLY EVENT nodes WILL CALL *ALL* the nodes including the invisible text nodes. Its really not *invisible* text nodes for a pair of eyes seeing XML for a long time. But it could be confusing!! I think this is where you got confused. HTH Vasu Chakkera Numerical Algorithms Group.
