In valid XHTML, however, <p> can't contain the equivalent block level
elements like <blockquote>, <table>, <list>, so the text would need to
be encoded (3):
<p>Text text text:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Quotation quotation quotation.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>More comment on this quotation.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Another long quotation.</p>
</blockquote>
The question is, how does one get from the TEI coding (2), where <p>
can contain 'block level' elements like quote/p, table, and list, to
the XHTML coding (3), where <p> can't contain block level equivalents
blockquote/p, table, and ul|ol ?
this should do the trick (untested)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; >
<xsl:output method="xhtml" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<!-- Transform TEI -->
<xsl:variable name="result">
<xsl:apply-templates select="p"/>
</xsl:variable>
<!-- Display Results -->
<xsl:copy-of select="$result"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()">
<xsl:if test="normalize-space()">
<p><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/></p>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="p">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="quote">
<blockquote>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</blockquote>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Ideally as another constraint, the first html:p in a sequence like (1)
should be distinguished from the rest so that one can recognise the
beginning of a rhetorical paragraph--perhaps by the addition of a
section number.
you can now take the $result variable and do whatever post processing
you would like....which I leave to you.
