How about preceding-sibling::processing-instruction() except preceding-sibling::node()/preceding-sibling::processing-instruction() ? Presumably this should get any PI that is immediately behind the context node, but none that are not. (Untested.)

I interpreted the initial requirement as "If the first preceding sibling that is not an empty text() node is a processing instruction, get that". But the markup as shown as the starting point only has elements, PIs, and text nodes, so for that content a simple preceding-sibling::processing-instruction()[1] would give the right answer, assuming there is always a PI before each element.

Have I got that wrong? Or is it only wanted if there's no intervening node that's not a white space only text node? -- Graydon Saunders | graydonish@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:graydonish@xxxxxxxxx> ^fs oferiode, pisses swa mfg. -- Deor ("That passed, so may this.")
