Hi,

     Alternately, you may want to try something like below.

Cheers,
Omprakash.V



<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text"/>

      <xsl:apply-templates select="./*"/>

<xsl:template match="ul">
     <xsl:call-template name="ulist">
     <xsl:with-param name="dash" select="'-'"/>
     </xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>



<xsl:template name="ulist">
<xsl:param name="dash"/>

     <xsl:for-each select="li">
     <xsl:choose>
     <xsl:when test="name(child::*) = 'ul'">
     <xsl:call-template name="ulist">
     <xsl:with-param name="dash" select="concat($dash, '-')"/>
     </xsl:call-template>
     </xsl:when>
     <xsl:otherwise>
     <xsl:value-of select="$dash"/>
     <BR/>
     <xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
     </xsl:otherwise>
     </xsl:choose>

     </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

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

</xsl:stylesheet>

Hi,

I'm always happy to help spreading the Wiki thought:)

Just in case you should prefer 1 stage transformations, here's another
solution:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text"/>

<xsl:template match="li">
           <xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
           <xsl:for-each select="ancestor::ul">-</xsl:for-each>
           <xsl:text> </xsl:text>
           <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

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

</xsl:stylesheet>

Have fun...

regards,
