[oXygen-user] XPath version in XPath toolbar?

[Oxygen XML Editor Support (Radu Coravu)]

Hello David,

Sorry for the delay.

We run both XPath 2.0 and 3.1 query expressions using the Saxon 11 
Enterprise Edition XSLT processor, providing the XSLT processor with the 
proper XPath version.

In such cases probably as you say the XSLT processor should report more 
precisely if certain expressions although supported by it are not quite 
compatible with the imposed expression version. But this is not 
something we control.

Regards,

Radu
