Hi All, I have one final XPath-related question. If I have a series of sibling elements like <a/>, below: <p> <a/>One or two <b>items</b><a/>or <i>another</i>, I dare say<a/><c val="#0f0">a third</c>, do you think?<br/> </p> how can I get at "everything between one a and the next a"? Right now, I am formatting by matching on <br/> and looping backwards (this is greatly simplified). <xsl:template match="br"> <xsl:for-each select="preceding-sibling::a"> <xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::text()[1]"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> But, of course, I've run into the problem that what is in-between <a/>s, could contain elements that would call for further application of templates - it might not be text-alone. This is my last question on this particular problem. Thank you very much, everyone who has helped me thus far. I hope eventually I will progress to a point where I can say something that is of help to someone else. KP XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
