Re: ?simple position grouping problem

Hi David,

> how do I select only <b>'s that follow particular <y>'s;

In XSLT 2.0, you use group-starting-with to say that you want to group
the child elements of <x> in the order that they appear, with each
group starting with the <y> element. The contents of the group can be
found using current-group() -- the first element in the resulting
sequence will be the <y> element, and the rest will be <b> elements.

  <xsl:for-each-group select="/x/*"
                      group-starting-with="y">
    <y id="{@id}">
      <xsl:copy-of select="current-group()[self::b]" />
    </y>
  </xsl:for-each-group>

Cheers,

Jeni
