xpath select text nodes
Assumming you in a template that matched on a component...

<xsl:template match="component">
<xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::component[1]"/>
</xsl:template>

This would output all of the text nodes of the preceding component, if
the was preceding component, or nothing.

Subject:  XPath for selecting all text node children?


Hi!

I've a problem I've been struggling with all day, I have the following
XML:

<root>
    <component>
        <element>
            <element>...text here...</element>
        </element>
    </component>
</root>

Now, in xslt, I'd like to get a string from the preceding component
(yes,
there are many of them), including all (no matter how the text nodes are
nested) text in the preceding component. I'm doing this inside a
for-each
loop. What is the XPath expression for preceding "component"'s all text
node
children? Is this even possible?

Regards,
Ilkka Hartikainen
