Combining Predicates In XPaths

Question

I have some XML like this:

<MT N="tag1" V="text"/>
<MT N="tag2" V="more text"/>
<MT N="tag3" V="other text"/>
<MT N="tag4" V="something cool"/>
<MT N="target_tag" V="i want this"/>
<MT N="target_tag" V="and this"/>

I'm trying to target the MT where N=target_tag and by number (1 or 2).

The following doesn't work, despite what I was hoping from this link:

<xsl:variable name="display" select="MT[@N = 'target_tag' and 2]/@V" />

If I try this, I consistently get the first one:

<xsl:variable name="display" select="MT[@N = 'target_tag']/@V" />

And if I try this, I consistently get the second MT tag (so "more text" in this example):

<xsl:variable name="display" select="MT[2]/@V" />

I've tried this with no luck too:

<xsl:variable name="display" select="MT[2][@N = 'target_tag']/@V" />

Based on my requirements, I need to combine them, so that when I'm looping through a recursive function I can show the first, then the second, then the third.

Any ideas how these can be combined?

Answer 1

select="MT[@N = 'target_tag'][2]" should work.
