Dear All,
Consider the following example xml:
<root>
<Paragraph>While <Characters>S. cerevisiae</Characters> is the most commonly studied yeast, it is not the only yeast that has been studied. Two
<i>o</i><i>t</i><i>h</i><i>e</i><i>r</i>
yeasts have also been studied to an
<i>e</i><i>x</i><i>t</i><i>e</i><i>n</i><i>s</i><i>i</i><i>v</i><i>e</i>
degree. First, studies of <Characters>Schizosaccharomyces pombe</Characters> have made extremely important contributions to our understanding of the eukaryotic cell cycle.
</Paragraph>
</root>
This needs to be transformed to:
<root>
<Paragraph>While <Characters>S. cerevisiae</Characters> is the most commonly studied yeast, it is not the only yeast that has been studied. Two
<i>other</i>
yeasts have also been studied to an
<i>extensive</i>
degree. First, studies of <Characters>Schizosaccharomyces pombe</Characters> have made extremely important contributions to our understanding of the eukaryotic cell cycle.
</Paragraph>
</root>
This is an extract. Throughout the manuscript, there are runs of unpredictable length of always adjacent <i> tags. I cannot come up with a template which will collapse any such arbitrary-length run of adjacent <i>s into a single <i> tag. Can anyone here?
