Looks like
<xsl:template match="clause">
<xsl:apply-templates select="word"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="word">
<word soundtime="preceding-sibling::sound[1]/@time"/>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</

Subject: [xsl] PARAMS and VARIABLES in XSL
I need help with the following problem.
This is the XML is wish to transform:
<clause>
<sound time="1.2">
<word>the</word>
<word>quick</word>
<sound time="2.2">
<word>fox</word>
<sound time="2.8">
<word>jumped</word>
</clause>
<clause>
</clause>
I need to transform it into the following xml, where the
sound tags time attritubes are soundtime attributes of the
following word tags:
<clause>
<word soundtime="1.2">the</word>
<word soundtime="1.2">quick</word>
<word soundtime="2.2">fox</word>
<word soundtime="2.8">jumped</word>
</clause>
<clause>
</clause>
Note that the soundtime attribute should not change if there
was no intervening new sound tag.
I have tried all sorts of solutions using axes,
preceding-sibling, but these did not work, since the <word>
and <sound> are not true siblings to the processor, even
though they are on the same level of the hierarchy.
The solution I would like to work with is the following,
using params to accumulate the soundtime variable. However,
even with all the research I have done, I cannot find a
solution that the processor does not error on. Can anyone help?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; >
<xsl:template match="//clause/*"> <xsl:param name="soundtime"
/> <xsl:if test="local-name() = 'sound'"> <xsl:param
name="soundtime" select="@time" /> </xsl:if> <xsl:if
test="local-name() = 'word'"> <word sound = "{$soundtime}" >
<xsl:value-of select="." /> </word> </xsl:if> </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
