JX Template help

Hi All,

Anyone got an idea what I am doing wrong here?

I have a java.util.ArrayList called "pageNames", populated with 
Strings, that I want to output (along with their index) using JX 
Template.

	<t:forEach items="#{pageNames}">
		<a href="#" 
onmousedown="doAction('#{$PAGEACTION}','#{position()}')">#{.}</a><br/>
	</t:forEach>

The output I get looks like this:

	<a href="#" onmousedown="doAction('PAGE_THUS','0')">Abdu'Allah</a><br/>
	<a href="#" onmousedown="doAction('PAGE_THUS','0')">Budgett</a><br/>
	<a href="#" onmousedown="doAction('PAGE_THUS','0')">Evans</a><br/>
	......                                                                 
          ^

ie. 'position()' is not working as I would expect it to do, (from my 
experience with XSLT).

Should I expect it to work the same way?
Is there an alternative way of doing this?
Thanks for any help

regards Jeremy
