I believe here $target should be replaced with parent($target). When $replacement contains attributes, the $target node must also be an attribute. (see section 2.4.3.1, bullets 3/4) This issue also applies to step 1 in upd:applyUpdates. 34608 1 jonathan.robie 2010-04-06 16:44:11 +0000 We believe this is correct - I will fix this in the specification.
