RE: Testing the following element

If I'm understanding you correctly, that you're interested in d's that
are immediately followed by a c, simply add a predicate on the
following-sibling axis:

d[following-sibling::*[1]=c]

This will select your first d, but not your second...

HTH!

Subject:  Testing the following element

Hello,

In a book I transform from xml to LaTeX using xslt, I have a hierachical
structure of this kind :

<Chapter>
 <a><a1>hello</a1>
  <b>
   <c>blah blah</c>
   <d>
    <c>blah blah</c>
   </d>
   <c>blah blah</c>
  <d>
   <c>blah blah</c>
  </d>
  <e>
   <c>blah blah</c>
  </e>
 </b>
</a>
</Chapter>

And I want to test if the <d>..</d> element is followed immediately
(that's
the point) by an <c>..</c> element. The case of a <c>..</c> element
included
in something else (an <e>..</e> here) mustn't validate the test. To put
it
simple, with the example above, I want the first <d>...</d> element to
match
a certain template, while the second <d>...</d> must match another
template.
Using test="following-sibling::c" doesn't work for it's always valid
when a
<c>..</c> element is included in one of the following brother of
<d>..</d>.
I've tried to add some position test but I can't make it work properly.

Can anyone help ?

Thanks

Philippe
