hi *!
this template <xsl:template match="d">
ancestor axis: <xsl:for-each select="ancestor::*">
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
</xsl:for-each>last element: <xsl:value-of select="name(ancestor::*[last()])"/> </xsl:template> will convert this source <a>
<b>
<c>
<d/>
</c>
</b>
</a>into ancestor axis: abc last element: a why? the spec says that the ancestor axis is a reverse axis. but then the for-each statement would be wrong. from my understanding, it should produce "cba". i found this explanation http://www.biglist.com/lists/xsl-list/archives/200405/msg00055.html in the archive, but i don't understand the concept of "steps". can anyone explain? sorry if this is a faq. thanks, jC6rn
