Re: [xsl] Counting preceding-siblings with a different parent

perhaps you want to count your preceding siblings and your preceding

cousings (ie, the children of your parent's preceding-siblings)

count(preceding::*) + count(../preceding::*/*)

Yes that was it.

I realized my stupidity of wanting to count sibilings of different parents,
but its still fairly early here and I've only had one cup of coffee.

In the hope to prevent mistakes when you try the above after your coffe, David probably meant:

count(preceding-sibling::*) + count(../preceding-sibling::*/*)

:-)

Cheers and good morning,
