Hi:
If using name() is not a good idea, are there other ways to find the parent?

why do you say it doesn't work under para?
If you execute that code when the current element is the test1 eleemnt
in your example, it will return "para" which is the name of the parent.
(although actually it's usually a bad idea to use the name() function)
