Re: Recognizing non-XML Markup Structure

Jeff thanks for your quick efforts. I am using saxon8 in the dos mode as below
java -jar saxon8.jar a.xml a.xsl >a.htm

Tested with input:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<para>Hoping to satisfy [...] the secrets of ecstatic love, the roots of personal happiness.</para>

using xsl:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">
<xsl:template match="text()[parent::para]">
<xsl:analyze-string select="." regex="\[(.*?)\]">
<xsl:matching-substring>
<cite><xsl:value-of select="regex-group(1)"/></cite>
</xsl:matching-substring>
<xsl:non-matching-substring>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:non-matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

produced:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Hoping to satisfy <cite>...</cite> the secrets of ecstatic love, the roots of personal happiness.

used saxon8 in oxygen....

Hi,

ERROR
XSL:Analyze-string must not appear directly within xsl:stylesheet

analyze-string is not a top-level xslt instruction so it should not be a child of xsl:stylesheet.

If you want to replace the text node of a para element you can do this...

<xsl:template match="text()[parent::para]">
<!-- your analyze string here -->
   <xsl:analyze-string select="." regex="\[(.*?)\]">
     <xsl:matching-substring>
       <cite>joga<xsl:value-of select="regex-group(1)"/></cite>
     </xsl:matching-substring>
     <xsl:non-matching-substring>
       <xsl:value-of select="."/>
     </xsl:non-matching-substring>
   </xsl:analyze-string>
</template>

note not tested...
