Re: How to use the same expression in a match and a s

for the job of lifting block elements out of html p I'd use
for-each-group rather than for-each (as you are using xslt2)
but to answer your question you can use a function

<xsl:function name="my:is-block" as="xs:boolean">
<xsl:param name="e" as="xs:element"/>
<!-- normally I'd use self:: here to be more namespace aware but given
you are doing case insensitive matching, I'd do this-->
<xsl:sequence select="lower-case(local-name($e))=(
'body','div',........')"/>
</xsl:function>




so you can then use

match="*[not(my:is-block(.))]"
