Which would be the right lpath to select the last item in each list?
This should work but we're one off so i need to fix that.
\startbuffer[demo]
<document>
   <ul>
     <li>first</li>
     <li>any</li>
     <li>last</li>
   </ul>
</document>
\stopbuffer
\startxmlsetups xml:demo:base
   \xmlsetsetup{#1}{document|ul|li}{xml:*}
   \xmlsetsetup{#1}{ul/li[1]}{xml:item:first}
   \xmlsetsetup{#1}{ul/li[-1]}{xml:item:last}
\stopxmlsetups
Many thanks for your help, Hans.

This is like magic to me. But I’m afraid that my description was inaccurate.

I need to mark the last item from nested lists, but considering each
<h2> (such as in my sample), not the whole document.

Just in case it isn’t clear, this is the XML source with desired items
marked:

    <document>
    <h2 id="heading">Heading</h2>
      <ul>
        <li>list</li>                    ***this one***
      </ul>
    <h2 id="heading-1">Heading</h2>
      <ul>
        <li>list
        <ul>
           <li>list</li>                 ***this one***
        </ul></li>
      </ul>
    <h2 id="heading-2">Heading</h2>
      <ul>
        <li>list
        <ul>
          <li>list
          <ul>
            <li>list</li>               ***this one***
          </ul></li>
        </ul></li>
      </ul>
    </document>

I hope it is clear now that it is the last item in a nested list, but
for each <h2> element.

Many thanks for your help again,

Pablo
