Rob,
At 02:07 PM 9/2/2003, you wrote:
so far, what seems to work is
match="section[preceding-sibling::*[local-name() != 'title']]"
as in, match any section that has at least one non-title preceding
sibling.
is that a reasonable way to do it? or is there a much more
elegant way i'm missing?
It's reasonable, although
match="section[preceding-sibling::*[not(self::title)]]"
is perhaps a little more elegant. And it's namespace safe. (The way you did
it is necessary when testing attributes, however, since the self:: axis
won't select attributes.)
Cheers,
Wendell
