RE: Re: [xsl] listing elements & sub-elements in a seqence - skiping elemts if sub-elemts are present

[cknell@xxxxxxxxxx]

I, too had trouble understanding the requirement, but what caught my attention was the use of xsl:for-each. It looks (at first glance) like another mis-use of xsl:for-each where the correct approach would be to define two templates:

<xsl:template match="section[not(subsection)]">
 ...
</xsl:template>

and 

<xsl:template match="section[subsection]">
 ...
</xsl:template>

Then simply apply-templates.

  1) Whether the above code is correct or not, pls can forward me the
  syntax code equivalent to <for-each - //section[with no subsection] |
  //section/subsection..>

I didn't follow the rest of your problem statement, but if you put in
the obvious missing syntax bits like ="..." then essentially what you
write is legal Xpath to select the elements that you want.


<xsl:for-each select="//section[not(subsection]|//section/subsection"
