I’m certainly no expert in the vast realm that is XML. I like it, and I hope it succeeds, and I want to learn it more… so here’s a question that someone can answer for me before I do days of research and find nothing:
Is there any standard (or at least reliable) way to “translate” a relative XPath expression into one that is absolute. A successful translation would be one that returned the exact same value/node-set as the original when evaluated in the same context. If such a solution exists… I’m guessing it would involve lots of “position()” calls.
Anyone?
