Christian,

Ah, I missed this syntax, thanks! It's exactly what I need.

Another problem down.

If I might suggest -- for us XSLT folks it would be a huge favor to
offer this hint at http://docs.basex.org/wiki/XSLT. As I keep
stressing, we document folks are constantly having to fuss with
whitespace and this is an important detail when using XSLT. (Which,
I'm finding, is a huge power feature on top of XQuery.)

Cheers, Wendell
