I think the XPath for the next element is something like
following::node() as in
<xsl:value-of select="following::node()"/>
That would select the text node between the end of <div> and beginning of
<font>.
The XPath address for the next element is "following::*", though typically
I use "following-sibling::*" because I'm usually dealing only with siblings.

Subject: [xsl] traversing to next Element
Hi all,
How do i jump to next element, for example,
<div>
<table>
<tr>
. ....
</table>
</div>
<font>
.....
i'm in DIV and how do i go to FONT in XSL.
Be careful using either following axis because you may get duplication
based on how you got to <div> in the first place: if when at the parent of
<div> you chose to process all children elements, then <font> will be
processed when you are finished processing <div> without having to
explicitly use any following axis, therefore when you do use a following
axis you would get duplication in this situation.
Questions like yours are difficult to answer without knowing a lot more
about what you are doing, what the context of the current node list is, how
you got to where you are, etc.
I hope this helps.
