I am using XSLT 1.0 and trying to find a way to transform the following SGML into XML.
SGML Input Supplied:
<para>
<text> The following is a list <style type="list"></style><style type="para"></style>List Item One.
<style type="para"></style>List Item Two.<style type="para"></style>List Item Three</text>
</para>
The problem I am trying to find a solution for is actually a problem in the sgml dtd. It was poorly written and now I have to deal with it.
<style> can contain no data, so instead of the <style> tag surrounding the data, it precedes the data and is an empty tag.
I was thinking that I could some how processing the parent <text> tag and
determine what the style tag that precedes the text intended the output to be.
So far I have not found a way that work. Any help would be appreciated.
XML Output Required:
<para>The following is a list.
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>List Item One</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>List Item Two</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>List Item Three</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
