Thanks Jeni (clarity personified again :-).

The above is the clue.

The actual file I'm dealing with is of the form
<!DOCTYPE report PUBLIC "-//RNIB//DTD report//EN" "/sgml/mine/reportsp.dtd">
<report>
 <!-- Time-stamp:<2001-04-11 14:46:48 DPawson> -->
 <ver>1.0</ver>
 <front>
   <version>1.0</version>
 
(I note your comment about pi's comments !)

Hence that's the reason its not working.

I'm playing with the diffxml, http://diffxml.sourceforge.net/
trying to get my head round indirect stylesheets, great fun
if you need to fry your circuits,

All the resultant paths are of this form, and I'm beginning to suspect
that I'm missing a trick, since all the differences are rooted in /node()[2]
which as you note, is not on for a well formed document.

More careful reading I think.

Tks Jeni,
