Re: checking sequential element

I think, you should do

<xsl:template match="citref">
  <xsl:if test="not(citaug/citau/following-sibling::*[1]/self::delim)">
    <xsl:message>citau does not followed by delim</xsl:message>
  </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

you were missing a 'not' and one missing level.
