Hi Raven,

If your sample file below is correct,

<spool> <identification> <ul> <li>This Text</li></ul> </identification> </spool>

all you need to do is replace the expression

<xsl:when test="parent::spool">

with

<xsl:when test="ancestor::spool">

since spool is in fact the great-great-grandparent of li in your first sample, so it is an ancestor not the parent.

Francis.
