Transforming XML Blockquotes - Mixed Content 14744 by: Edward Bryant 14745 by: James Fuller 14746 by: Edward Bryant
I am having a lot of trouble transforming XML blockquotes that are structurally and grammatically correct (i.e, as child elements to a parent paragraph tag) into XHTML that will be displayed correctly by a browser. Because of two separate IE6 bugs that prevent a blockquote from being structured as the child of a paragraph, I pretty much need the XSL output to be
<p>Yadda yadda yadda:</p> <blockquote><p>blah blah blah</p></blockquote> <p class="cont">yackity yack</p>
However, the XML is structured like this:
<p>Yadda yadda yadda: <blockquote>blah blah blah</blockquote> yackity yack</p>
So, my first thought was to make a conditional statement that would do this but I am having a lot of trouble constructing it. I can not locate any information on a conditional statement that would test whether one element (p) with mixed conternt contained another element (blockquote). I also am having trouble with a way to split up the p tag's text into the pre-blockquote and post-blockquote strings. Even with the above problems, I haven't even touched on the problems that a paragraph with multiple blockquotes would cause.
