I know I can do this but I'm stumped.
Please consider the following XML:
<section>
<?ModuleStart ShowIDs="yes"?>
<title>Text of a title</title>
<para>para in the section</para>
</section>
I am current to the text() node of <title/>
I need to test to see if my parent has an immediate preceding sibling of
processing-instruction named "ModuleStart"
If so I need to know the content of that PI.
I need to be sure that the test will NOT be true if I am current with the text() node
of <para/>
Well if we take white space text nodes into account then the title
element is not immediately preceded by a processing instruction, rather
by a text node. So maye
<xsl:variable name="n"
select="../preceding-node()[not(self:text(normalize-space()))][1][self::processing-instruction()]"/>
<xsl:if test="$n">
<xsl:value-of select="$n"/>
</xsl:if>
