How about--

<xsl:template match="br">
<xsl:if test="not(count(preceding-sibling[position()&lt;3][self::br]) &gt; 1)">
<br/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

hi,

I would like to replace a sequence of elements (in input) by an other (in output)

As shown in the following example, when i have :
- 1 br (with or without not empty preceding text node), I keep 1 br
- 2 br, I keep 2 br
- more than 2, i keep no br



<body>
my text 1 <br />
my text 2 <br /><br />
my text 3 <br /><br /><br />
my text 4 <br /><br /><br /><br />
<table>
<tr><td> <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
other text
....

i would like to have in OUTPUT

<body>
my text 1 <br />
my text 2 <br /><br />
my text 3 <br /><br />
my text 4 <br /><br />
<table>
<tr><td> <br /><br />
