Subject: Re: Using position() to retrieve corresponding value in another node
From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx>

if you use a numeric constrict in a filter like
 field[1]
it is short for the predicate
field [position()=1]

so if you go

field[position()]

it's short for

field[position()=position()]

and the predicate is always true.

You want

<xsl:for-each...>
  <xsl:variable name="p" select="position()"/>
  <xsl:value-of select=....field[position()=$p]
