William,
Forgive me if I don't catch all your questions, but the main one may be
addressed by recalling that an RTF is a string which can be copied directly to
the result tree. You can test on its length(), among other string properties it
may answer to: contains(), starts-with(), et.al.
But you'd rather be working with a nodeset here, I think.
hth,
Mike
