How to get node value in XSLT which comes within 2 different but continius tag

XSLT_Prof · July 31st, 2013, 10:25 AM

Hi,

I am newbie to XSLT, in fact today only I started working on it. I learn some basic stuffs but got stuck on some point. please see below XML.

Code:

<section>
<title>Phonemic Awareness</title>
<p><b>Use the Poetry Poster</b></p>
</section>
<section>
<title>Phonemic Awareness</title>
<p>Use the Poetry Poster</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>Phonemic Awareness</title>
<b>Use the Poetry Poster</b>
</section>

I would like to retrieve value which is inside "<p><b>" tag & which are in continuous in order (i.e. first <p> and then immediately <b> tag comes). How can i get this value in my xslt (I m transforming xml to html file). Appreciate if you can help me on same asap.

Thanks,
Abdul
