Re: How to get the sibling node just before the contex

preceding sibling 1
Hi James,
cdnt u use preceding-sibling::B/TEXT1. If you want a generic mechanism
to get the immediate preceding sibling node , cdnt u use
preceding-sibling::node()[1] which in this case gives you B , and then
maybe use the node step TEXT1 to point to TEXT1. [i.e.
preceding-sibling::node()[1]/TEXT1

rgds,
Menon
