 Hi, Bruce,
How about the following?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Multi-paragraph Blockquote Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="para">
<p><xsl:apply-templates/></p>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="blockquote">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="blockquote/para">
<p style="text-indent:.25in"><xsl:apply-templates/></p>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
That gave me (edited for spacing):
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>Multi-paragraph Blockquote Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Some text:
<p style="text-indent:.25in">One paragraph.</p>
<p style="text-indent:.25in">Another paragraph.</p>
</p>
</body>
</html>
The result appeared properly indented in IE 6, Firefox 1.0.1, and Opera
7.54. To get proper XHTML, you'll need to adjust the stylesheet, but the
concept seems to work (if I understand what you want).
Tested with Saxon 8.4.

multi-paragraph blockquotes
What's the best way to use XSLT (2.0) to convert this:
<para>Some text:
<blockquote>
<para>One paragraph.</para>
<para>Another paragraph.</para>
</blockquote>
</para>
... to what XHTML structures such that applications (browsers, but also
MS Word) will display it right?
I've been using the hack of display-output-escaping, but am not fond of
that approach.
So, I'm asking an XSLT question, but also an XHTML one as well.
