Hi,
You can simply find out the position of a node
let $x :=
<languages>
<language iso3="ita"/>
<language iso3="fra"/>
<language iso3="slv"/>
<language iso3="deu"/>
<language iso3="eng"/>
</languages>
let $count := 0
return
for $each in $x/language
return
(
if(fn:data($each/@iso3) = "eng")
then $count+1
else(),
xdmp:set($count,$count+1)
)
just replace "eng " by any of the value (like "fra" or "ita" or any)
and you will get the position of that node.
