I figured it out.
<xsl:template match="title>
<xsl:element name="topic-title">
<xsl:for-each select=".//text()[not(ancestor::indexterm)]">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
Thank you for the suggestion, Mukul. It prompted me to evaluate the text
nodes individually.

While this is an interesting possibility, I cannot use it. I should have
indicated that the <indexterm> element inside the <title> is optional.
Consider my first attempt:
<xsl:template match="title>
<xsl:element name="topic-title">
<xsl:value-of select="."/
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
This works perfectly in all cases _except_ when there is one or more
<indexterm> elements in the title.

I hope following should work:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="title">
<topic-title><xsl:apply-templates
select="indexterm[1]/preceding-sibling::node()" /></topic-title>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template
match="node()[following-sibling::indexterm[not(preceding-sibling::indext
erm)]]">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="self::text()">
<xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This produces output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<topic-title>Configuring the process command </topic-title>
With input XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<title>Configuring the <command>process</command> command <indexterm>
<primary>In title</primary>
<secondary>first</secondary>
</indexterm>
<indexterm>
<primary>In title</primary>
<secondary>second</secondary>
</indexterm>
</title>
You could try to correct the extra newline printed at the end.

Greetings All,
I am processing the following sample source:
...
<title>Configuring the <command>process</command> command <indexterm>
<primary>In title</primary>
<secondary>first</secondary>
</indexterm>
<indexterm>
<primary>In title</primary>
<secondary>second</secondary>
</indexterm>
</title>
...
I already have scripting in place to process the <indexterm> elements
inside the <title> and move them to another location in the output.
The problem is that I need to output a title that ignores the child
elements but retains their content but _not_ if the child element is
an indexterm. The output I need is:
<topic-title>Configuring the process command</topic-title>
Naturally, I started with something like the following:
<xsl:template match="title>
<xsl:element name="topic-title">
<xsl:value-of select="."/
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
Which generated the output:
<topic-title>Configuring the process commandIn titlefirstIn
titlesecond</topic-title>
I've been playing around with various predicates on text nodes but
they don't provide the desired output. For example:
<xsl:template match="title>
<xsl:element name="topic-title">
<xsl:value-of select="./text()[not(ancestor::indexterm)]"/
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
Generates the following output:
<topic-title>Configuring the </topic-title>
Any assistance is appreciated.
Best regards,
