Tempore 14:16:06, die 02/15/2005 AD, hinc in xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx scripsit Jim Neff <jneff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:

	<xsl:apply-templates select="$field_definitions/type_AA0/*[(plan_id
= current()/provider[1]/claim[1]/plan_id) or (not(plan_id) and
(not(field_no=../type_AA0/*[plan_id =
current()/provider[1]/claim[1]/plan_id]/field_no)))]">

Hi,

this Xpath will never return any node unless there are two 'type_AA0' elements nested. type_AA0/*[../type_AA0]

Try writing: <xsl:apply-templates select="$field_definitions/type_AA0/*[(plan_id = current()/provider[1]/claim[1]/plan_id) or (not(plan_id) and (not(field_no=../*[plan_id = current()/provider[1]/claim[1]/plan_id]/field_no)))]">

I'm not sure why you're doing a test on the 'field_no'.

Wouldn't this suffice?
<xsl:apply-templates select="$field_definitions/type_AA0/*[(plan_id
= current()/provider[1]/claim[1]/plan_id) or (not(plan_id) and
(not(../*[plan_id = current()/provider[1]/claim[1]/plan_id])))]">

P.S. You could also use keys to increase performance and make the expression easier to understand...
