Your misunderstanding of XSLT/XPath is not related to libxslt itself.
http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/bugs.html
Title "The XSLT C library for Gnome: Reporting bugs and getting help"
"If you need help with the XSLT language itself, here are a number
of useful resources:"
With pointers to:
- list dedicated to help on XSLT/XPath
- the FAQ
- On-line tutorial, books
Your irony is a bit misplaced I think. The information is there, at
the place you should have looked for (xsltproc command line tool usage
help states "To report bugs and get help: http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/bugs.html").
If you don't want to read, you won't learn. Sure it may look simpler
for you to just ask here, but it's like asking on the gcc list because
your C code doesn't do what you expect, it's not the right level, it's
not the right place. Makes sense ?
