Re:  creating list from structured paragraphs
This should be quite straightforward, though I have not tested it:

<xsl:template match="para-1">
<list-item>
<xsl:value-of select=".">
</list-item>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="para">
<para>
<xsl:value-of select=".">
<list>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</list>
</para>
</xsl:template>

The former should work for the first case. For the second case, it may be a little bit more complicated. I'd suggest using a xsl:for-each, using position() and/or following-sibling and/or something else. As you see, I am not an expert ;-)

I'm hoping this is simple. Here is the XML:

<doc>
<para>The following text is a list
 <para-1>List item No. 1</para-1>
 <para-1>List item No. 2</para-1>
 <para-1>List item No. 3</para-1>
</para>
</doc>

I need:

<doc>
<para>The following text is a list
 <list>
  <list-item>List item No. 1</list-item>
  <list-item>List item No. 2</list-item>
  <list-item>List item No. 3</list-item>
 </list>
</para>
</doc>

I'd cut and paste my XSL but it doesn't work so I felt it not worth the
bandwidth.

It should also be noted that I do have influence over the XML to an extent.
I can remove the parent-child relationship so that the XML looks like this:

<doc>
<para>The following text is a list</para>
<para-1>List item No. 1</para-1>
<para-1>List item No. 2</para-1>
<para-1>List item No. 3</para-1>
</doc>

but it didn't bring me closer to a solution. Any help would be much
appreciated.

thanks

David
