Subject: RE: XPath problem: Checking if imidiately preceding sibling is of acertain kind
From: "Ragulf Pickaxe" <jawxml@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi again,

I have tried with:

<xsl:when test="not(preceding-sibling::*[1]=preceding-sibling::A[1])">
Last sibling was not an A element -
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
Last sibling was an A element -
</xsl:otherwise>

Which I thought would have worked, but it does not. It works well enough on the first problem (grouping consecutive A elements), but on the A elements with attributs a="5" and a="7", it says that the last element was an A element (why?).

<root>
 <X><A a="1"/><A a="1"/><A a="2"/>Some text</X>
 <X><A a="4"/>Some text<br/>
       <A a="5"/>More text<br/>
       <A a="7"/>Even more text</X>
</root>


Thanks,
Ragulf Pickaxe :-|
