[xsl] Displaying only first Text node

Subject: [xsl] Displaying only first Text node

Hi All,

I am trying to capture/display only the first text node (product name) in
a paragraph tag ("<para>") which has the product name separated by line
break ("<br>") tags. I got as far as identifying the location but I can't
get only the product name before the first line break tag to display.

Please see my XML and XSL snippets below and I hope someone will be able
to give me some pointers on what I am doing wrong.

Thanks in advance for your help, I really appreciate it.


Regards,
Horace Burke

<===XML===>

<!--In this instance for example I only want to display the text
"T8-FITC/NKH-1-RD1"-->
<ProdName>
  <title>Product Name</title>
 
<para>T8-FITC/NKH-1-RD1<br/>T4-FITC/4B4-RD1<br/>T4-FITC/2H4-RD1<br/>T11-RD1/B4-FITC...</para>
</ProdName>

<===END XML===>

<===XSL-FO===>
<!--This is displaying all the product names, so I know that I am really
missing something here -->
<xsl:template match="para" mode="ProdName_BR">
   <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="parent::ProdName and child::br">
	 <xsl:if test="position()=1">
	    <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>
	 </xsl:if>
      </xsl:when>
   </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
