Hello,
I have problem with converting a part of an XML file into more hierarchically structured XML.
My guess is that multilevel grouping with each-for-group is the method I should use, but I tried several methods - group-by, group-starting-with, and group-adjacent and it worked partially. The first "Chapter" level works as it should, but can't process the lower levels. I want to replicate the sequence in the list, but I want the output to be properly nested.
The other problem is that for some files the string will start with letter, sometime with a number, e.g. Part 1; A/1; 1/7). I tried to use regular expressions by they did not work.
my input xml file looks like this:
my stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" version="2.0">

<xsl:template name="level-03">
<part>

</title>
</part>
</xsl:template>

desired output:
