Subject: [xsl] enclosing consecutive XHTML heading elements into <hgroup />, etc. From: Ivan Shmakov <oneingray@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2013 09:18:34 +0000 |
Long story short: the input XML has spans of elements which are
to be enclosed within elements of some other kind, as in:
<!-- Input -->
<doc>
<a /><a /><b /><b />
<foo>
<a /><b /><b />
<aa /><a /><b />
</foo>
</doc>
<!-- Output -->
<doc>
<enclosing>
<a /><a /><b /><b />
<foo>
<enclosing><a /><b /><b /></enclosing>
<enclosing><aa /><a /><b /></enclosing>
</foo>
</enclosing>
</doc>
Is there a simple way to do that, given that the set of the
elements which can start such a span is finite (<a /> and <aa />
in the example above), but they can otherwise occur anywhere?
FWIW, Ibm constrained to XSLT 1.0.
The overall task is to introduce <article />, <section />,
<header />, and <hgroup /> elements, as per the following
example.
Input:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head><title>Hello, world!</title></head>
<body>
<h3>The well-known</h3>
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<h2>program</h2>
<p>Here we discuss the generalsb&</p>
<h2>J. R. Hackerbs implementation</h2>
<p>And here are the particularsb&</p>
</body>
</html>
Expected output:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head><title>Hello, world!</title></head>
<body>
<article>
<header>
<hgroup>
<h3>The well-known</h3>
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<h2>program</h2>
</hgroup>
</header>
<p>Here we discuss the generalsb&</p>
<section>
<header>
<h2>J. R. Hackerbs implementation</h2>
</header>
<p>And here are the particularsb&</p>
</section>
</article>
</body>
</html>
Or, algorithmically speaking:
b" enclose the <body /> contents into an <article /> element, if
therebs none;
b" enclose uninterrupted sequences of two or more heading (<h1 />
to <h6 />) elements into <hgroup />s;
b" enclose the resulting <hgroup />s and the (so far unprocessed)
singular heading elements into <header />s;
b" and finally, enclose all the <article /> elements starting
with a <header /> element (including one) and stopping at the
next <header /> (excluding one) into <section />s; the first
<article />bs <header /> is to be excluded.
My current implementation is at [1], and what makes me wonder is
whether itbs possible to avoid a template like the following
there:
<xsl:template
match="xhtml:h1[preceding-sibling::*[position () = 1][self::xhtml:h1 or
self::xhtml:h2 or self::xhtml:h3 or self::xhtml:h4 or self::xhtml:h5 or
self::xhtml:h6]] | xhtml:h2[preceding-sibling::*[position () =
1][self::xhtml:h1 or self::xhtml:h2 or self::xhtml:h3 or self::xhtml:h4 or
self::xhtml:h5 or self::xhtml:h6]] | xhtml:h3[preceding-sibling::*[position ()
= 1][self::xhtml:h1 or self::xhtml:h2 or self::xhtml:h3 or self::xhtml:h4 or
self::xhtml:h5 or self::xhtml:h6]] | xhtml:h4[preceding-sibling::*[position ()
= 1][self::xhtml:h1 or self::xhtml:h2 or self::xhtml:h3 or self::xhtml:h4 or
self::xhtml:h5 or self::xhtml:h6]] | xhtml:h5[preceding-sibling::*[position ()
= 1][self::xhtml:h1 or self::xhtml:h2 or self::xhtml:h3 or self::xhtml:h4 or
self::xhtml:h5 or self::xhtml:h6]] | xhtml:h6[preceding-sibling::*[position ()
= 1][self::xhtml:h1 or self::xhtml:h2 or self::xhtml:h3 or self::xhtml:h4 or
self::xhtml:h5 or self::xhtml:h6]]"
priority="2"
>
<!-- do nothing -->
</xsl:template>
TIA.
