Subject: Re: [xsl] Counting number of characters of sibling text node From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 11:49:16 -0400 |
<xsl:variable name="this-and-preceding-siblings"> <xsl:copy-of select=".|preceding-sibling::node()"/> </xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="string-length($this-and-preceding-siblings)"/>
Cheers, Wendell

It works!! thanks!
Sorry for disapointing you, but that expression only works when you have no more than 2 text nodes, because string-length(nodeset) returns length of the first node string value in the nodeset, not a summarized length, of course.
