[Exist-open] Antw: select nodes until another node

[Markus K. <mar...@bs...>]

Sorry, taking it back, already solved the issue:
the operator '<<' ended up working just fine.

Hy List,

this is a rather basic XQuery / XPath question but it is giving me
trouble nonetheless:

I need to select nodes which are (in document order) preceding another
already known node. I have already tried to use position() or the
XPath
2.0 operator << but both dont work. Do I really have to count all the
nodes (my document is rather big) and then access them via their
position in the sequence? Because that seems unnecessarily
complicated.

There must be a simple way to just select nodes up to a certain node
in
the DOM, right?

Cheers,
Markus
