Hi,
To get the first available language "fra" or "eng", I would use:
let $x :=
<languages>
<language iso3="ita"/>
<language iso3="fra"/>
<language iso3="slv"/>
<language iso3="deu"/>
<language iso3="eng"/>
</languages>
return ($x/language[@iso3="fra" or @iso3="eng"])[1]
If you really want the position, something like:
($x/language[@iso3="fra" or
@iso3="eng"])[1]/fn:count(preceding-sibling::language) + 1
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Fahad.
