I have my quotations in a XML-file that looks like this: <coll> <quote> <line>The man who does not read books has no advantage over the man that can not read them.</line> <source>Mark Twain</source> </quote> </coll>
First, can you not clean up your XML so you don't have to worry about the case-sensitivity? How about, for example, an id for each name -- where you have code like <source idref="twain">Mark Twain</source> -- and then group by id? With respect to how to code this, the grouping support in XSLT 2.0 is certainly useful for this sort of thing. I got some help from Jeni Tennison a few weeks back on this issue, in a thread called "regexs, grouping (?) and XSLT2?" The problem I had was more complex, but you could probably adapt it. I don't really see why you need multiple passes, but maybe I'm not understanding right. Bruce
