Re: [xsl] 1st previous node()

Great, and I have been doing some different tests on a sample XML and
the result is consistent. So there must be something else wrong.
Thanks!

I just took a look at gernerate-id in my book and from what I'm reading here,
I'd say you will always get the same ID as long as you give the function the
same node.

Yes, but preceding incorrectly would consider the children of the
previous node, so preceding-sibling::*[1] is the right answer, and
then of course ../*[1] would select the first ancestor. I'll give
this a go.
Hopefully someone can chime in on the generate-id issue I am having,
I'm really expecting a consistent answer so assuming I might be doing
something wrong.

I think that preceding includes ancestors too so you could try leaving the
ancestor::*[1] out.
Don't know about the id's :-/

Betreff: Re: [xsl] 1st previous node()
I have now. I've just noted that in an xml like this:
<a>
<b>
<c>
<e></e>
</c>
</b>
<x>current node</x>
<a>
Given <x> is the context node, the preceding element is <e>, but I am
expecting <b> So I now have something like this:
<xsl:variable name="previous-nodes" select="ancestor::*[1] |
preceding-sibling::*[1]/>
The ancestor select is necessary because if the preceding <b> node did
not exist then the correct node match would be <a>.
So then previous node is: $previous-nodes[last()]
See any issues with the above? Let me restate what I am after:
Select the first preceding sibling node if exists, or select the first
ancestor node, if exists.
I have another question about generating id's. Will the results be
the same regardless how you get to the node()? I seem to be getting
different answers, but this is not conclusive.

Have you tried preceding::*[1] ?!
AFAIK this only matches elements.

Betreff: [xsl] 1st previous node()
XSL1.0
I need help finding the first previous node, skipping white space,
comments, etc.. I thought this might work, but I can't get it or
similar tries to work.
<xsl:variable name="previous" select="preceding::node()
[not(comment())]
[not(text())]
[not(processing-instruction())]
[1]"/>
Given that <X> is the context node then I expect the previous node is <M>.
<A>
<M>
<?skip me?>
<!--skip me-->
</M>
<X> this is context node </X>
</A>
Given that <X> is the context node then I expect the previous node is <B>.
<A>
<B>
<X> this is context node </X>
</B>
</A>
