Re: [xsl] Transforming problem

[Rick Taylor <taylor@xxxxxxxx>]

Francis,

Instead of using the copy-of on the "para" element match use 
apply-templates and add another template that matches the 
para/text().  This should get you closer to the desired output.

<xsl:template match="para">
 <p>
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
 </p>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="para/text()">
        <xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:template>
