Nothing is impossible, but selecting whether you're the last text node in a subtree is a little tricky in 1.0. I often find it useful to work back from a 2.0 solution, which you could do by adding the template rule: <xsl:template match="text()[. is (ancestor::submission.excerpt//text())[last()]]" priority="5" <xsl:value-of select="."/>... </xsl:template> You haven't got the "is" operator in 1.0, but you can replace (A is B) by (generate-id(A) = generate-id(B)). This solution could be rather expensive if the number of text nodes in a submission.excerpt is large.
