I don't have much experience with xsl, so there's a good chance that
this question is trivial, but I'm just not getting it:
In TEI-ish xml we use <unclear> to tag insecure readings.
The tradition for printed editions says, that every unclear letter is
rendered with a dot below.
Using XSLT 2 I can use RegEx to do this:
<xsl:template match="tei:unclear">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:value-of
select="replace(., "()","
$1&combdotbl;")"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
This works fine, but results in, that all possible markup inside the
<unclear>-tags is lost. I guess it would be a solution to call this
little template inside every other processing instruction, but as
<unclear> is allowed on virtually every level of the xml, this is
going to be a mess...
So I'm looking for a way to do the search-replace and get the code
inside processed by the rest of the stylesheet nevertheless.
A sort of replace-instruction, that leaves tagging untouched and
passes the result on to <xsl:apply-templates/>
Thanks in advance for your help!
