grouping like items into one

 grouping like items into one
I know I have done this with xsl 1.0 before and could figure it out, but 1.0 is painful :)
So I am trying to figure it out with 2.0 and am getting stuck. I am running into that "how do I know what to look up if I don't know how to spell it" jam.
I looked at the xsl:for-each-group element, but I don't think that will work in this situation.
Someone want to take a whack at it?



I want to group bordered text into one border <span>, but leave italic text ( and other styles ) in individual nodes.


_______Source XML__________________
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<DD>
<text italic="false" border="">a </text>
<text italic="false" border="single">b </text>
<text italic="true" border="single">c </text>
<text italic="true" border="">d </text>
<text italic="false" border="">e </text>
<text italic="false" border="single">f </text>
<text italic="false" border="single">g </text>
<text italic="false" border="">h </text>
<text italic="true" border="single">i </text>
<text italic="true" border="">j </text>
