RE: [xsl] checking sequential element

2008-12-31 04:21:22

I want to test the presence of <delim/> tag after </citau> in 
the below example. If it is missing the XSL should raise an error.

<citref id="bib12">
 <citaug>
 <citau>
   <citsname>Ferri</citsname>
   <delim/>
   <citfnames>E</citfnames>
 </citau>
 <delim/>
 <cittext>(ed.).</cittext>
</citaug>

I have tried the following code but i am not getting the 
required result.

<xsl:template match="citref">
 <xsl:if test="citau/following-sibling::*[1]/self::delim">
  <xsl:message>citau does not followed by delim</xsl:message> 
 </xsl:if> </xsl:template>


The citau element is not a child of citref, but a grandchild. Perhaps you
were misled by the poor indentation.
