text and child nodes

eepyoga · April 8th, 2008, 12:37 PM

Hi everybody,

here's my problem...
I have a piece of XML:
...
<article>
<emphasis>(</emphasis><ndr>1</ndr><emphasis>)</emphasis>
My TEXT
<emphasis>(</emphasis><ndr>2</ndr><emphasis>)</emphasis>
</article>
...

I should use a XSLT 1.0 to transform it and apply templates for the children emphasis-ndr-emphasis preceding "My TEXT", then write "my TEXT" and finally apply templates for the children emphasis-ndr-emphasis following "My TEXT".
The number of children emphasis-ndr-emphasis preceding or following "My TEXT" may vary.

How can I do that??

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

EePy.

Code:

<xsl:template match="article">
  <xsl:apply-templates
    select="*[following-sibling::text()[. = 'My TEXT']]" mode="mode1"/>
  <xsl:apply-templates select="text()[. = 'My TEXT']"/>
  <xsl:apply-templates
    select="*[preceding-sibling::text()[. = 'My TEXT']]" mode="mode2"/>
</xsl:template>
