Thank you, David

preceding-sibling::x[title][1]

This will select the first x element (counting backwards) that has a title. (so will return at most 1 node)

Don't know why, but I thought that this one would return the first one in document order, but I guess that would have been (preceding-sibling::x[title])[1]

Ragulf Pickaxe :-)
