Hello, This kind of question belongs more properly to an XSLT list, such as http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/ But you can try the following in XPath 1.0: <xsl:value-of select="//value[. > 0 and not(. > //value[. > 0])]"/> In XPath 2.0, or the necessary extension function, you can use select="min(//value[. > 0])" Lars On 12/23/2007 1:11 AM, chandra shaker wrote:
