XSL Experts --
I'm trying to prevent the first occurrence of a child tag from line
breaking.
So for example I have the following xml:
<law>
<section>
<amended>
<catchline>This is the title</catchline>
<para>This is paragraph 1</para>
<para>This is paragraph 2</para>
<para>This is paragraph 3</para>
</amended>
</section>
</law>
I would want the output after running the xsl to look similar to this:
This is the title. This is paragraph 1
This is paragraph 2
This is paragraph 3
Currently what I've tried in my xsl is this:
<xsl:template match="amended/para">
<xsl:for-each select = "child::node()">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="child::node()[not(.=normalize-space(.))][1][self::para]
<fo:inline>
<xsl:value-of select = "." />
</fo:inline>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<fo:block>
<xsl:value-of select = "."/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xslchoose>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
I think the "<xsl:when test =
"child::node()[not(.=normalize-space(.))][1][self::para]"
is what is wrong. I've tried looking up all the pieces of this segment
of code, but have no real understanding what it is doing. It is
something I pulled from a mail list archive.
Thanks for any and all help!
