Re: Counting number of characters of sibling text node
Filipe,
But if you do
<xsl:variable name="this-and-preceding-siblings">
<xsl:copy-of select=".|preceding-sibling::node()"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:value-of select="string-length($this-and-preceding-siblings)"/>
you may get better results.
Cheers,
Wendell
