Re: [xsl] Matching only text nodes with certain (complicated) properties

To all those who've replied,

with your help the original problem has been resolved, thank you!

The template in its (provisional) working form is:

<xsl:template 
match="body//text()[normalize-space()][preceding::text()[normalize-space()][1] 
&lt;&lt; preceding::pb[1]]">
  <span class="pagenumber">page <xsl:value-of 
select="preceding::pb[1]/@n"/></span>
  <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>

The matched text node must of course appear in the XHTML. For this purpose I 
changed the useless <xsl:apply-templates/> instruction to a copy-of 
instruction (since the matched text node will never contain elements etc.).
Wendell, the whitespace handling is an issue I'm going to consider very soon 
and I'll think of your strip-space hint, thanks.
