I'm back in WordML-to-XML land and I've run up against the problem of how to
map sequences of paragraphs that represent, for example, a sequence of list
items with logically subordinate list items, for example, I might have a
sequence of input elements like this:
<p type="para" level="1">Para 1</p>
<p container="ol" type="li" level="1">ol item 1</p>
<p container="li" type="para" level="2">Para w/in li</para>
<p container="ol" type="li" level="1">ol item 2</p>
<p container="li" type="para" level="2">Para w/in li</para>
<p type="para" level="1">Para 2</p>
Where the desired result is:
<para>Para 1</para>
<ol>
<li>ol item 1
<para>Para w/in li</para>
</li>
<li>ol item 2
<para>Para w/in li</para>
</li>
</ol>
<para>Para 2</para>
I've reviewed various discussions of sibling recursion, which I'm pretty
sure is what I need to apply to this problem.
But I'm having a very hard time wrapping my head around it--I suspect
procedural brain damage.
What I'm not seeing is how, through sibling recursion, I can start a result
wrapper and then end it. Likewise, doing something like for-each-group on
all the level-1 elements would provide no way to group the list items under
a common container.
I suspect there's some simple thing I'm missing here or some clever
recursion/grouping technique that escapes me.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Eliot
