No, you haven't put what I suggested in your stylesheet.

Why do you have "d:para/text()" when I suggested the equivalent of
"d:para//text()"?

Yes, your single quote in "Alice's" is a descendant of para, not a
child of para. In my example for you I specifically indicated that
the match template was for the descendants of the ancestral element,
not the children of the ancestral element.

Exactly, because you did not match a text node that is a descendant
of the paragraph, only a child of the paragraph. The figure's
title's text node is a descendant. What you see is what I would
expect from the code you implemented, but is not what I would expect
from the code that I suggested.

Not at all.

>after the figure ?

Yes, implement my suggestion as I suggested it, without changing it
to be a subset of what I suggested.

Of course I realize it is a simple oversight, but nevertheless it is
an important one that changes the behaviour totally. I can see in
your quotation of my suggestion I was very careful to use "//"
instead of "/" ... if you recall from Kevin's post he specifically
cited ancestors, not parent, thus requiring my use of descendants and
not children.

I hope this helps.
