Re: following vs following-sibling

.. Subject: [xsl] following vs following-sibling
..
..     Is there a difference between the two? I thought
.. they are the same but:
..
..     I tried:
..
..     <xsl:value-of select="following::url"/>
..
..     which worked, but this:
..
..     <xsl:value-of select="following-sibling::url"/>
..
..     returns nothing while there is a following node, so
.. they do behave differently?
..

following-sibling is a subset of following.  following-sibling gets
you only the children of the same parent as the current node; following
gets all those plus their descendents.
