Subject: Re: [xsl] [XSL] extracting a verse From: "Michael H. Semcheski" <mhs-list@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 18 Dec 2002 17:21:45 -0500 |
Michael,
I think you'll have found, trying your code on (e.g.) the sample I supplied, the below is a work in progress. :->
Nonetheless it's good to see that another bear has been caught by this honey of a problem. Eventually with so many smart people working on it, it is bound to become more tractable. (I already put in my $0.02: it's a job for a streaming transform, SAX-style, not XSLT.) Let us know as you make progress on its deeper aspects.
Cheers, Wendell

I started thinking about this, and I think I have an approach somewhere in between the JITT and the BUVH. Its pretty simple, actually, so I am wondering if there is a reason that this didn't already come up. I can't really play around with it anymore, but this might be a step...
