Re: Passing element nodes through string functions (WAS RE: Preserving inline elements when using string functions)

Using keys for grouping is known as "muenchian grouping" in hono(u)r of
Steve Muench who thought of it (Jen's fault for coinng the phrase I
believe)

You can use the Queen's English with me -- I have a built in
translate($UKjargon, $weirdSpelling, $USjargon) function. I've done some
simple stuff with Mr. Muench's marvelous method in the past, but
complicating it with the mixed nodes pushes it past my current comprehension
level.
 
Is the output that I have shown what you expect?
yes (except for the first blank 1 line which may be a bug in my code,
or it may be that your uinput really started with a linebreak?

It may be picking up the linebreak between the parent <page> element and the
child <bodytext> element...? No matter, as it doesn't affect the displayed
output.

Thanks for the solution (and thanks to Bill also for his excellent
description and solution). I wasn't too far off in getting the recursion
right -- at one point I had it outputting the proper number of nodes, but
each one repeated the content of the first node. This is tricky stuff, for
sure.
