<p>

<strong>Hobbies:</strong>

<a shape="rect" href="http://www.hobbies.com/fishing" title="Shark Hunting">Coral Bay</a>

fishing

</p>

 

I tried the following combinations to get the value 'fishing' without much luck:

 

<xsl:template match="ns:p[ns:strong='Hobbies:']">

<xsl:for-each select="text()[normalize-space() != '']">

<hobbies><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space()"/></hobbies>

</xsl:for-each>

</xsl:template>

 

This should work. But you said that <hobbies><xsl:value-of select="../ns:a"/></hobbies> works (starting from the <strong> element). I would expect that to return <hobbies>Coral Bay</hobbies>. Are you sure the input is what you say it is?
