What is the intention of using zero-based numbering to index points, particularly vis-a-vis XPath position()? For instance, does the following locate the first point in a document (or external parsed entity)? xpointer(//point()[1]) Or must you do: xpointer(//point()[0]) If the former, zero-basing the indexes of points seems academic. The latter, OTOH, seems to redefine XPath positions. What am I missing? ======================================================================= John E. Simpson | "I don't have to walk my dog anymore.
