Hi Tobi, > Where can I find the definition of the eq operator? The eq operator is defined in Section 3.5.1 Value Comparisons in the XPath 2.0 WD at: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath20/#id-value-comparisons The way in which eq works for a particular data type is defined in the F&O WD at: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions Most data types that you can compare for equality have a op:X-equal() operator defined in the F&O WD, where X is the name of the data type. For example, if you want to find out how two dateTimes are compared, look up op:dateTime-equal() at: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions/#func-dateTime-equal The exception is that xs:string values are compared using fn:compare() as defined at: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions/#func-compare A complete list of the possible comparisons and the relevant operators/functions from the F&O WD are given in Appendix B.2 Operator Mapping in XPath 2.0 at: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath20/#mapping Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/
