Parse CDATA content

parse cdata
Hello List:

Here's what I'm trying to do: Create a HTML report from an Ant log file. I'd
like to parse the <![CDATA[]]> section of the message elements. The
characters that signal an element I want has '<-', then I want to grab
everything after 'SourceCompare' until the '<-' but not including it. Then,
I want to break out the 1st "node" after that so I end up with 2 tokens,
example element:
 
<![CDATA[//server/PVCS_Data/Build/Integration/SourceCompare/BatchJobs/com/cl
ient/ECreator.java <-
//server/Production/archives/BatchJobs/com/client/ECreator.java-arc]]>

Resulting in: BatchJobs (token 1),  com/client/ECreator.java (token 2)

Then, the next message after that contains the version of that class as
such:
  <message priority="info"><![CDATA[rev 1.21]]></message>

I need the contents from that...I think using text() would give me that but
I need that on the same "row" so the table output looks like this:

Projects     Class                                          Version
BatchJobs    com/client/ECreator.java                       rev 1.21

This log file is approximately 6 - 7 MB but the pertinent info need (in this
case are just six lines) is much less which is why I'd like to produce this
report. I can get to the <target> element I want but after that I hit the
wall.

XML snippet:

<build>
  <target>
    ...
    <task>
    ...
     <target name="retrieveJavaFromPVCS">
       <task name="pvcs" time="5 minutes 7 seconds">

       <message priority="warn">
         <![CDATA[PVCS Version Manager (get) v6.8.00 (Build 128) for Windows
NT/80x86]]>
       </message>
       <message priority="info"><![CDATA[Creating folders]]></message>
       <message priority="info"><![CDATA[Getting Files]]></message>
       <message priority="debug"><![CDATA[Considering
""\Production\archives\BatchJobs\com\DebugSink.java-arc""]]>
       </message>
       <message priority="info">
 
<![CDATA[//server/PVCS_Data/Build/Integration/SourceCompare/BatchJobs/com/cl
ient/ECreator.java <-
//server/Production/archives/BatchJobs/com/client/ECreator.java-arc]]>
       </message>
       <message priority="info"><![CDATA[rev 1.21]]></message>
       </task>
      </target>
    ...
    </task>
  ...
  </target>
</build>

XSL:
<xsl:template match="build">
  ...
  <xsl:apply-templates
select="/build/target/task/target[@name='retrieveJavaFromPVCS']"/>
  ...
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="/build/target/task/target/task[@name='pvcs']">
  <xsl:for-each select="message[@priority='info']">
    <tr valign="top">
      <xsl:attribute name="class">
       <xsl:if test="position() mod 2 = 1">a</xsl:if>
       <xsl:if test="position() mod 2 = 0">b</xsl:if>
      </xsl:attribute>
      <td nowrap="yes" width="1%">Project Name</td>
      <td nowrap="yes" style="text-align:right" width="1%">Class Path</td>
      <td class="{@priority}" nowrap="yes">Version : <xsl:value-of
select="text()"/></td>
    </tr>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

<!-- attempt to find start and stop points to grab string but don't know how
to finish it -->
<!-- adapted code from XSLT Cookbook -->
<xsl:template name="start-pt">
  <xsl:param name="search-arg" select="SourceCompare"/>
  <xsl:param name="input-arg"/>
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="contains($input-arg,$search-arg)">
      <xsl:value-of
select="string-length(substring-before($input-arg,$search-arg))"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>0</xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
<!--
<xsl:template name="end-pt">
  <xsl:param name="search-arg" select="&lt;-"/> <!-- trying to escape
greater than char that makes up the arrow -->
  <xsl:param name="input-arg"/>
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="contains($input-arg,$search-arg)">
      <xsl:value-of
select="string-length(substring-before($input-arg,$search-arg))"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>0</xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
-->

Thanks,
