Hi Rick,
Compared to the pain using XSLT1 for a task which XSLT2 can easily handle,
the pain you have to go through if you are forced to change a nice working
XSLT2 solution down to XSLT1 is a real PITA.
But anyhow, I know that sometimes we are forced to do ugly stuff. I would
not be trying to use xsl:key for that problem, as keys are more of an index
across a full document and in your situation everything depends on the order
of elements. In XSLT2 you would use xsl:for-each-group, which in XSLT1
sometimes can be kind-of replicated by "tree walking"
<http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N4486.html#d5510e1105>.
As in your example the same class attribute value maybe used for a level 1
or level 2 list item, it might also be a good idea to do some preprocessing,
because otherwise some XPaths may become really long. I guess I would try to
separate the logic of finding the correct list item level from the step of
adding the required <ul>.
Good luck,
- Michael

Hi,
I have this for my input XML:
<body>
<p class="listintro">ListItem_Bullets:</p>
<p class="listitembullets">• Item 1</p> <p
class="listitembullets">• Item 2</p> <p
class="listitembullets">• Item 3</p> <p
class="normal">Paragraph within a list.</p> <p
class="listitembullets">• Item 4</p> <p
class="listitembullets">• Item 5</p> <p
class="listitemindented">• Item 1 indented</p> <p
class="listitemindented">• Item 2 indented</p> <p
class="listitembullets">• Item 6</p> <h2>Indented list starts
here:</h2> <p class="listitemindented">• Item 1 indented</p>
<p class="listitemindented">• Item 2 indented</p> <p
class="listitemindented">• Item 3 indented</p> <p
class="normal">Paragraph within a list.</p> <p
class="listitemindented">• Item 4 indented</p> <p
class="listitemindented">• Item 5 indented</p> <p
class="listitemindented">• Item 6 indented</p> </body>
I want to get this:
<body>
<p class="listintro">ListItem_Bullets:</p>
<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
<li>Item 3</li>
</ul>
<p class="normal">Paragraph within a list.</p> <ul>
<li>Item 4</li>
<li>Item 5</li>
<ul>
<li>Item 1 indented</li>
<li>Item 2 indented</li>
</ul>
<li>Item 6</li>
</ul>
<h2>Indented list starts here:</h2>
<ul>
<li>. Item 1 indented</li>
<li>. Item 2 indented</li>
<li>. Item 3 indented</li>
</ul>
<p class="normal">Paragraph within a list.</p> <ul>
<li>. Item 4 indented</li>
<li>. Item 5 indented</li>
<li>. Item 6 indented</li>
</ul>
</body>
