Dear Luke,
Use templates.
This is XSLT 101:
<xsl:template match="line">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="a">
<fo:inline text-decoration="underline">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:inline>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="d">
<fo:inline text-decoration="line-through">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:inline>
</xsl:template>
I like to teach beginners never to use xsl:for-each at all unless
they have a good reason. Good reasons do not include "I didn't know
how to use a template", since to learn XSLT is to learn how to use them. :-)
Cheers,
Wendell

I'm having some trouble trying to underline and line-through specific
text from my xml. My xml is formatted like so:
///XML///
<line number=3>
This is some regular old text, <a> and now I want this
underlined </a> and then maybe some more regular old text,
<d>and this to be line-through</d> and finish up with some
regular text.
</line>
Here is what I currently have in my xsl:
///XSL///
<xsl: for-each select = "line">
<xsl:value-of select="./@number>
<xsl:for-each select = "a">
<fo:inline text-decoration="underline">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:inline>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:for-each select = "d">
<fo:inline text-decoration="line-through">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:inline>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
The above xsl however prints the line with both the underline/strike
through section and the non formatted version, giving me repeated lines.
Any ideas on how to properly handle this?
Thanks,
L
