Re: find the following sibling of my parent

Hi,

For something like the thing you want (linking to the next
div which may be in the body, the front or the back matter)
I've been doing:

<xsl:variable name="next">
<xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="following-sibling::div">
  <xsl:value-of
select="following-sibling::div[position()=1]/@id"/>
 </xsl:when>
 <xsl:when test="ancestor::front">
  <xsl:value-of
select="ancestor::front/following-sibling::body/child::div[position()=1]/@id"/>
 </xsl:when>
 <xsl:when test="ancestor::body">
  <xsl:value-of
select="ancestor::body/following-sibling::back/child::div[position()=1]/@id"/>
 </xsl:when>
 <xsl:when test="ancestor::back">
  <xsl:value-of
select="ancestor::back/preceding-sibling::front/child::div[position()=1]/@id"/>
 </xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

Followed by the code necessary to generate the actual link
to the div with @id attribute equal to the $next variable. 

Regards,
Peter
