I'm creating an XML to XML transform. Transforming a kluged DITA model
into standard DITA. I have to transform something called
<reference-content> into a <task> child of the root task.
I can easily transform <reference-content> to <task>. Where I'm stuck is making the new task a sibling of the currently containing <taskbody>. Currently <reference-content> is a child of <taskbody>. Once <reference-content> is tranformed to <task>, I need to close the containing <taskbody> and make the new <task> a sibling of that <taskbody>. My XML source: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <task xml:lang="en-us" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../catalog/task.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <title>TITLE</title> <shortdesc>SHORT DESCRIPTION</shortdesc> <taskbody> <prereq> <ul> <li> <p>Paragraph</p> </li> </ul> </prereq> <steps> <step> <cmd>Click <uicontrol>Apply</uicontrol>.</cmd> </step> </steps> <result> <p>You have successfully completed this procedure.</p> </result> <reference-content> <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" framewidth="wide" id="table1"> <caption number="yes">TABLE TITLE</caption> <tbody> <tr> <td align="left" valign="top" width="20%"> </td> <td align="left" valign="top" width="25%"></td> <td align="left" valign="top" width="30%"></td> <td align="left" valign="top" width="25%"></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" valign="top" width="20%"></td> <td align="left" valign="top" width="25%"></td> <td align="left" valign="top" width="30%"></td> <td align="left" valign="top" width="25%"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </reference-content> </taskbody> </task> Current result: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
