Unfortunaltely I still have a problem with xsl:for-each-group and my
xml example.
For a better understanding the test-xml-file:

<root>
   <element>
       <h1>h1</h1>
       <h2>h2_1</h2>
       <para>para_1</para>
       <para>para_2<emp>auszeichnung</emp></para>

       <h2>h2_2</h2>
       <para>para_6</para>
       <h3>h3_1</h3>

       <para>para_17</para>
       <para>para_18</para>
       <h4>h4_2</h4>
       <para>para_19</para>
       <para>para_20</para>
       <h5>h5_2</h5>
       <para>para_21</para>
       <para>para_22<emp>auszeichnung</emp></para>
       <para>para_23</para>
   </element>
</root>

I numbered the text nodes for a better visualization.

Yes, but could you please post a *complete* example of the output
desired from the above?

For example, since 5 > 3, that would imply a <sect3> inside of a
<sect1>, but since a 4 follows the 5, would that <sect2> be a sibling?

I apologize that I am unable to decipher how the nesting is supposed to
work from the sample data supplied.  Perhaps there has been no answer
from anyone else for the same reason.

and so on. Unfortunately I cannot see the problem. IsnCB4t it possible
to grab the content out of a xsl:for-each-group as I tried it using a
separate template?

I am really sorry for that perhaps basic question but I am dispaired
about that problem.

Thanks for helping me. Perhaps one day I will be more firm to XSLT.

Many of us are anxious to help new users become seasoned users, but I
have taken a chunk of my volunteer time to try and work out what you
need and I am truly lost.  Sorry.

many thanks for taking time. I know that all of you out there are really
busy.

The desired output from the above input should look like this. I hope
this helps:

By the way, how can I get a good XSLT programmer? I am reading and
testing a lot, but it is so hard for me understanding this language.
Are there realy good books on the market?

Thanks so much,
Andreas
