Re: [xsl] inserting a child element while honoring the parent element's content model

["Piez, Wendell A. (Fed) wendell.piez@xxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Chris,

How about (.|preceding-sibling::node), as in
$fromhere/(.|preceding-sibling::node()) ?

Also useful for counting, as in count(self::h1|preceding-sibling::h1).

Cheers, Wendell

Hi Eliot,

I hadn't known about these operators, thank you!

I couldn't see a clean way to use "<<"  for a preceding-sibling-or-self:: axis
for this specific case, but I will definitely keep these operators in mind for
future DiTA processing tasks.
