 I need to filter an (X)HTML document to remove certain elements (We're creating NITF which is a specific subset of HTML). I have a situation where I need to remove the DIVs from within an LI element. We have decided that when we encounter a DIV within an LI we are going to replace it with a training BR if the next valid sibling is another DIV. Otherwise we'll do nothing. Can I do the following: <xsl:template match="DIV[parent::LI]"> <xsl:varible name="following-valid" select="following-sibling::DIV|following-sibling::P|following-sibling::OL|fo llowing-sibling::UL" /> <xsl:apply-templates select="*|comment()|pi()|text()"/> <xsl:if test="$following-valid[1] = following-sibling::DIV[1]"> <br /> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> > Whether this works depends on whether the select in the variable returns > everything in document order or each of the individual element types in > document order and the individual results are accumulated together. > Clearly I'm hoping that the select is guaranteed to return its nodes in > document order not the axes. > > We have also looked at something like: > <xsl:template match="DIV[parent::LI and name(preceding-sibling::* [name(.)='DIV' or name(.)='OL' or name(.)='UL' or name(.)='P' or name(.)='BR' or name(.)='EM' or name(.)='A'][1])='DIV']"> <br/> <xsl:apply-templates select="*|comment()|pi()|text()"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="DIV[parent::LI ]"> <xsl:apply-templates select="*|comment()|pi()|text()"/> </xsl:template> > Sample input > > <html><body> > <ul> > <li> > <div>Something</div> > </li> <li> <div>SomethingElse<div><table><tr><td>sometable</td></tr></table> </li> <li> <div>Something Yet again<div><table><tr><td>sometable</td></tr></table><div>Something More<div> </li> <li> <div>Something Yet again<div><div>Something More<div> </li> <li> <div>Something Yet again<div><table><tr><td>sometable</td></tr></table><p>Some paragraph</p> </li> </ul> </body></html> > This should produce end up as: > > <html><body> > <ul> > <li> > Something > </li> <li> SomethingElse </li> <li> Something Yet again<br />Something More </li> <li> Something Yet again<br />Something More </li> <li> Something Yet again<p>Some paragraph</p> </li> </ul> </body></html> > Any suggestions??? > > > > Adam van den Hoven > Internet Application Developer > Blue Zone > tel. 604.685.4310 > fax. 604.685.4391 > Blue Zone makes you interactive.(tm) http://www.bluezone.net/ > XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
