Hi Rick,
1) You are looking for elements that are simultaneously processing
instructions. You need to replace * with node().
2) The immediately preceding sibling might be a whitespace-only text node.
Try this (untested):
preceding-sibling::node()[empty(self::text()[not(normalize-space())])][1][self::processing-instruction()]

Hi All,
I have this XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manual>
B B <?Fm Document GN800042-VGRShreddingMill_UM_cover.fm?>
B B <cover/>
B B <?Fm Document BP00001.fm?>
B B <chapter/>
B B <?Fm Document BP00010.fm?>
B B <chapter/>
B B <?Fm Document GN800042.fm?>
B B <chapter/>
B B <?Fm Document SC00019.fm?>
B B <chapter/>
B B <chapter/>
</manual>
For each chapter element, I want to grab the immediately preceding
processing-instruction. The third message in my code doesnbt return it.
The second one does, but it doesnbt insure that the
processing-instruction is the first preceding-sibling. Thanks in advance
for your help.
