RE: [xsl] Para element

Thanks Michael.
Is the following statement true about a para element:
"When you find a para element, you're only moving on to the next para element 
with the same name - if there isn't one you stop, so the section elements 
afterwards are ignored."

What exactly is a para element?

It's whatever you want it to be. Or rather, what the designer of the XML 
vocabulary you are using wants it to be. For example, if your input is DocBook, 
then para is what the DocBook definition says it is; if your input is XHTML, 
then you need to turn to the XHTML definition. That's the whole point about 
XML: anyone can define their own vocabulary, and the tags have no meaning 
except in the context of a specific vocabulary.
