Hello All,
I am attempting to transform the below XML document
(CHAPTER OF A BOOK) into
my preferred output below. I'm having problems
generating the subsections.
The subsections can be 1 to N nested. Could someone
help with an approach
or point me to some resources that have something
like this. Thanks in
advance.
SOURCE DOCUMENT:
<body>
<chapter></chapter>
<p>
<span>2.1 Introduction</span>
<span>Content</span>
</p>
<p>
<span>2.1.1 My Book</span>
<span>Content</span>
</p>
</body>
OUTPUT I WOULD LIKE:
<body>
<chapter></chapter>
<section>
<title>2.1 Introduction</title>
<para>Content</para>
<subsection>
<title>2.1.1 MyBook</title>
<para>Content</para>
</subsection>
</section>
</body>
