Hi Varun,
The problem is in your xpath expression. The path returns 1 because
you are actually counting the <products /> element.
You could try something like the following depending how exact you
want to make your query.
count(//type[text()='ABC'])
but I think the path you are looking for is actually:
count(/yearly/year/products/type[text()='ABC'])
Best of luck,

hi,
my input xml is the foll:
<yearly>
<year ending="Jul-2007">
<inquiry>11</inquiry>
<products>
<type>ABC</type>
<type>ABC</type>
<type>ABC</type>
<type>ABC</type>
<type>ABC</type>
<type>DEF</type>
<type>DEF</type>
<type>DEF</type>
<type>DEF</type>
<type>DEF</type>
<type>DEF</type>
</products>
</year>
</yearly>
now <xsl:value-of select="count(yearly/year/products[type='ABC'])"/> is
giving the value as 1, i need the output as 5 because ABC appears 5 times.
Please give ur comments.
thanks in anticipation
Varun
