Liam,
I think I had a "brain spasm" and, for the "test" I was comparing to '' (2
single quotes), instead of just using the boolean returned by the
function-available() :)....., which actually looks like it worked ;) !!B  But
I've changed it now to just use the boolean returned for sanity's sake.B 
Thanks, nice catch !!!
Jim

so, when exslt:node-set() is available you prodice a message saying
node-set is NOT available, which may be a little confusing

this will happen when exslt:node-set is not available, of course.

Hope this helps,
