Subject: RE: [xsl] Para element From: "Kerry, Richard" <richard.kerry@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2009 12:09:48 +0100 |
None of us can know what it means, unless you tell us about the schema you're using. You might be using Docbook, in which case <para> means "paragraph". Or into extreme sports, in which case it might mean something related to "parachute". If it's something military, <para> might mean "paratroop". Or something about political extremism, in which case it might mean "para-military". Or mathemiatical, where it might mean "parameter". Etc. Unhelpfully, Richard. > -----Original Message----- > From: Surana, Swati [mailto:swati.surana@xxxxxxxx] > Sent: 12 November 2009 10:57 > To: 'xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' > Subject: RE: [xsl] Para element > > > Thanks Michael. > Is the following statement true about a para element: > "When you find a para element, you're only moving on to the > next para element with the same name - if there isn't one you > stop, so the section elements afterwards are ignored." > > > Regards, > Swati > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael Kay [mailto:mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: 12 November 2009 10:07 > To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: RE: [xsl] Para element > > > > > What exactly is a para element? > > It's whatever you want it to be.
