select="distinct-values(sections/section/name/lower-case(.)
              [not(contains(., 'new entry'))]
              [every $s in current()/sections/section satisfies
$s/name/lower-case(.) = .])"

I have updated my variable definition to;

>       <xsl:variable name="ubiquitous-names"
>                         select="distinct-values(sections/section/name
>                         [not(contains(., 'new entry'))]
>                         [every $s in ancestor::sections/section satisfies
$s/name = .])" />

Reading up on distinct-values, it says that I am to assume the default
collation as case-blind, but after testing, this is proving not to be the
case. Is there any way I can force a lower case comparision?

Thanks.
