the output is:

"some text 1 some text 2 some text 3"

Lucas,


I used:

<some_element>
<a>hello</a> some text 1<br/>
some text 2
some text 3
<a>hello 2</a>
</some_element>

for the input. Assuming you only want to output the text up to the next <a> element, then something like this (XSLT1.0) might get you in the right direction:

<xsl:template match="a">

<xsl:variable name="next_a" select="generate-id(following-sibling::a[1])"/>

<xsl:for-each select="following-sibling::text()[ generate-id( following-sibling::a[1] ) = $next_a ]">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>


</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="some_element">
   <xsl:apply-templates select="a"/>
</xsl:template>

I'm not totally sure what you meant by ' stop on the first occurrence on the "[ ]" '
