Re: Designs for XSLT functions (Was: Re: RE: syntax sugar for call-template)


I ran it with Saxon 5.5.1

but to be honest I am not sure.

I am never sure when result tree fragments are returned and when
nodesets.
At this moment I am using an empirical test: if Saxon returns nodeset
then it 
is O.K. :)
I am so glad these ugly fragment ghosts disappear from 1.1
