Re: insert tags out of context in XSL

<!-- #######THIS IS WHERE I WANT TO PUT </para><para> ########-->

No, you really don't; In XSLT you are creating branches of a tree and
it's no use getting to the leaf of one branch and saying you want to
start a new branch, you need to specify up front where you want your
branches to be.

 <!-- output substring that comes before the first linefeed-->
you want to output that inside a para element, so

<para>
                <xsl:value-of
select="substring-before($StringToTransform,'&#xA;')"/>
</para>

and similarly

    <!-- string does not contain newline, so just output it -->
            <xsl:otherwise>
                <para><xsl:value-of select="$StringToTransform"/></para>
            </xsl:otherwise>
