Hi,
I'm trying to change our stylesheets over to 2.0 and saxon 8, but am getting confused about the behaviour of the last() function. My test case is below, it has a variable called $languages, with many <lang> elements. I wanted to get the 3 distinct languages from there. If I comment out the last() function, it works as I expect, but when I add the last() function inside the for-each loop I get it returning '2', and only get 1 iteration from the loop. I expect the last() function to return 3. Any suggestions/hints would be welcome thanks, Jurn <?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2003/11/xpath-functions">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="languages">
<lang>English</lang>
<lang>English</lang>
<lang>Chinese</lang>
<lang>French</lang>
<lang>French</lang>
<lang>Chinese</lang>
<lang>French</lang>
<lang>Chinese</lang>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:for-each select="fn:distinct-values($languages/lang)">
<xsl:value-of select="position()"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="."/>,
<xsl:value-of select="last()"/>
