Re: merging duplicate consecutive elements

Hi,

You don't need a priority when you use the identity transform.

So your
      <!-- Default Copy Statement. -->
    <xsl:template match="@*|node()" priority="1">
can just be

      <!-- Default Copy Statement. -->
    <xsl:template match="@*|node()">

I couldn't verify if the entire output is correct. But the grouping of
adjacent info nodes happens correctly.

I modified your stylesheet slightly which can be seen below:

Here's the stylesheet:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
    <xsl:output method="xml"/>
    <xsl:key name="Key" match="info" use="local-name()"/>

             <xsl:template match="/">
                 <xsl:copy>
            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
        </xsl:copy>
<!--
                         <xsl:apply-templates select="overview"/>
-->

             </xsl:template>

             <xsl:template match="overview">
                         <xsl:copy>
                                     <info>
                                     <xsl:apply-templates select="*"
mode="group"/>
                                     </info>
                         </xsl:copy>
                         </xsl:template>


<xsl:template match="info" mode="group">
             <xsl:apply-templates select="*" mode="group"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="info">
             <xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="info/*" mode="group">
             <xsl:variable name="current" select="."/>

 <xsl:if test="../following-sibling::info[1]">
            <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
 </xsl:if>

            <xsl:copy-of select="../following-sibling::info[1]/para"/>


</xsl:template>

      <!-- Default Copy Statement. -->
    <xsl:template match="@*|node()">

        <xsl:copy>
            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*" />
            <xsl:apply-templates />
        </xsl:copy>
    </xsl:template>

 </xsl:stylesheet>

Hello list,

I have tried the following xslt to try to concatenate the contents of
duplicate, consecutive info elements in xml, but it writes the input
tree to the result tree without merging the duplicate info elements. If
I omit the statement <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/> from the
root template, the result tree is empty.

Can anyone help me see what is wrong with this stylesheet?

Thanks,

Ann Marie

I'm trying to transform this segment of xml:

<overview>
             <info>
             <para>overview paragraph A</para>
             </info>
             <info>
             <para>overview paragraph B</para>
             </info>
</overview>

To look like this:

<overview>
             <info>
             <para>overview paragraph A</para>
             <para>overview paragraph B</para>
             </info>
</overview>
