Bob

My source now has the "$". It did originally but must have disappeared 
during one of my many jiggles to get it to work...

Unfortunately I'm still not getting anywhere.

test="not($node/preceding-sibling::section)" does actually check all 
sibling elements before node right? ie. in:

<chapter>
   <title>
   <chapterinfo>..</>
   <section>                <-- if here
   <section>

..will check <title> and <chapterinfo> to return "true"?
