Hi group,
I was trying to find empty p or q elements in my xml (saxon 9B) with <xsl:template match='(p|q)[count(node()) = 0]'/> This gives me a syntax error. It seems as if the parentheses construct is disallowed anyway. If I try the following example from Martin Kay's XSLT bible (for xpath 2.0) <xsl:template match='book/(chapter|appendix)' /> I get Error at xsl:template on line 14 of file:/autofs/srv009bh/home/ruud/leeg.xsl: XTSE0340: XSLT Pattern syntax error at char 5 on line 14 in {book/(chapter}: Unexpected token in pattern, found "(" Why is that? Do I really have to rewrite my xpath expression to <xsl:template match='*[self::p or self::q][count(node()) = 0]'/>? regards, Ruud
