When the document being formatted is not short, formatting speed can become quite slow.- preceeding:: or following:: expressions- position() or last() expressions that test position- Any expression or sub-expression that begins with //The tagged FOSI editor must be used to enter a value for the xpath characteristic.Enumerat xpath attributeWhen xpath is specified for the enumerat xpath attribute, its return value is used instead of the incremented value.For example, given <document code="123">, the following code outputs "1234":<counter initial="1111" style="arabic" enumid="codect">...<e-i-c gi="document"><charlist inherit="1"><enumerat enumid="codect" xpath="string(@pubnumber)"><usetext source="codect"></usetext>If the enumerat is evaluated often when the document is formatted and the XPath expression requires traversal of a signification portion of a document that is not short, formatting speed will slow significantly.The tagged FOSI editor must be used to enter a value for the xpath characteristic.Good luck!Suzanne Napoleonwww.FOSIexpert.com"WYSIWYG is last-century technology!"
