Sorry to pester you all with beginners' questions, but I'm sort of 
in a  hurry, and reading the DSSSL spec will take me a couple 
weeks, I'm afraid. Is there an elegant way to access lines 
separated by SGML RE/RS within an element? So that, given 
an element like the following in the document istance:

<ANELEMENT>
Line1
Line2
Line3

Line5 following empty line4
</ANELEMENT>

I could assign a choice of lines (e.g. only lines 4, 1 and 5) to 
variables? Skimming over the spec I haven't noticed anything 
that would help me.

Thanks in advance,
