Re: [xsl] Merging elements

the wood for the trees. Does anyone have an elegant way to do this?

Use 'sibling recursion', similar to the identity template but it
traverses the following-sibling axis... then add a specific template
for the span which does the grouping (by checking if the immediate
following sibling element is also a span)
