Clarification on node-set definition

["Gavin Bong" <gavinb at pobox dot com>]

hi,

The XPath spec defines a node-set as:-

- an unordered collection of nodes without duplicates.

"Unordered" here basically means it hasn't been sorted on any
properties of each node in the set. Is it correct to say that it is
returned in document/sourcetree order ? e.g. if my xml doc
was generated such that there is some sort order based on
position in the sourcetree - then my app would consider it
sorted.


Thanks

Gavin
