Description Fred Zemke 2005-07-15 22:13:49 UTC 
3.1.2 Dynamic context
It does not say what is the type of fs:position and fs:last.
Presumably it is xs:integer, the return type of fn:position() and
fn:last() in Functions and Operators.  As for fs:dot, its type
presumably depends on the static analysis that created the 
current statEnv, or the initialization of the initial statEnv.

I believe this is editorial.

Comment 2 Jerome Simeon 2006-04-15 23:12:22 UTC 
Added some clarifying text about the type for the $fs:last, $fs:position, and $fs:dot variables.
