Re: [xsl] matching <br/> v. <br></br>

Sorry That was not clear enough and perhaps misleading.  Here is a
reproducible set of XSL and XML.

Note that when the para's are enclosed in a span with a font class this
behavior happens.  But when the span is removed the output of the <br></br>
is passed through to be seen by a user:

XML (run in coocon or command line with Xalan)
=======================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?>
<?cocoon-process type="xslt"?>

<test>
  <para>kjdsf sdlfkjf lsls dflflk sg <br/> jdflk dfkldf lsl dfklgj skl
</para>
  <para>kjdsf sdlfkjf lsls dflflk sg <br></br> jdflk dfkldf lsl dfklgj skl
</para>
  <para>Holly and Jeff<br/> received some<br></br> training
manuals&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt; they ordered.</para>
</test>
--------------------------------------------------------------
XSL
=========================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet
 version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

<xsl:template match="test">
  <html>
    <head>
    <style>
    .test {}
    </style>
      <title></title>
    </head>
    <body>
      <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </body>
  </html>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="para">
  <xsl:for-each select=".">
   <span class="test">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
   </span>
    <hr/>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="br | BR">
  <br/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
