Re: Confused with ranges of variables...

[Peter Aherne <ahernep at piercom dot ie>]

Sorry, what I actually meant was that I wanted to check a range from 021-00050 to 021-00060 or something like that. If I do a <csl:if test="'021-00050' = $SomeVar"/> If returns true if $SomeVar is the same (Duh!) but if I do a <xsl:for-each select="//ROW[PartCode = '021-00050']"> I dont get any return even if such an element exists. I presume it is to do with the hyphenation and numeric/alpha numeric comparasons but I have no idea whats going on.

Regards,
