Hi, Nadia, Try this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="design.consideration"> <result> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="generate-id(../processing-instruction('xm-insertion_mark_start')/following-sibling::*[1]) = generate-id()"> <xsl:text>yes</xsl:text> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:text>no</xsl:text> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </result> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I tested that with (with Saxon 8.6.1) on the following test files: <x> <?xm-insertion_mark_start author="Nadia Swaby" time="20051202T111856-0500"?> <test/> <design.consideration></design.consideration> </x> (which produced "no") and <x> <?xm-insertion_mark_start author="Nadia Swaby" time="20051202T111856-0500"?> <design.consideration></design.consideration> <test/> </x> (which produced "yes") HTH Jay Bryant Bryant Communication Services (presently consulting at Synergistic Solution Technologies) Nadia.Swaby@xxxxxx 12/02/2005 02:46 PM Please respond to xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx cc Subject [xsl] How to find out if the preceding sibling is a PI Hi all, I have a document that looks something like this: <?xm-insertion_mark_start author="Nadia Swaby" time="20051202T111856-0500"?> <design.consideration></design.consideration> I need to do a test to find out if the sibling immediately preceding the design.consideration element is an xm-insertion_mark_start PI. Basically, I need something like preceding-sibling::*[position() = 1 and processing-instruction('xm-insertion_mark_start')] but that statement doesn't return anything. Is there any way of doing this? Thanks Nadia
