Sateesh,

Look in the Xpath spec for an explanation of the shorthand symbols.

Folks for <xsl:value-of select = Expr >

The Expr is defined as combination of ExprToken which is defined below.

I looked at the specs to find the meaning of '.' , '.. , and '::' and
couldn't find them in XSL specs at w3c. I was wondering if any of you have
what these symbols indicate?.

I have an XSL that is somewhat like this <xsl:value-of select='.'> and I
don't know what the hell it means. Sorry to comment, but I get the felling
XSL specs are not very well written.

ExprToken    ::=    '(' | ')' | '[' | ']' | '.' | '..' | '@' | ',' | '::'  
   | NameTest  
   | NodeType  
   | Operator  
   | FunctionName  
   | AxisName  
   | Literal  
   | Number  
   | VariableReference
