  Yes, that was what I was just about to say in reply to Jay.  But how do 
  you do this in XSLT (2.0)?


there was a longish thread on grouping the mixed content of a p to pull
out block level elements on this list earlier this week (or last week or
whenever)

But personally I think the fault is the content model of p which doesn't
correspond well to the notion of a paragraph. This is fixed in XHTML2
but XHTML2 renderers are thin on the ground. 


So for HTML or XHTML1.x I think that using a div (which basically is p
with a fixed content mode) produces semantically more meaningful html
files than using p and arbitrarily splitting up a paragraph into
multiple p's so that block level elements come between teh
sub-paragraphs not within them.

See my previous reply that produces valid html that has indented
paragraphs (modelled as div of class para rather than as p)
