Description

The XSL...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
<xsl:output method="text" encoding="utf-8"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="parent"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="parent">
<xsl:for-each select="child::node()">
name is <xsl:value-of select="name()"/> text is <xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Used with the XML...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<parent>
<a>1</a>
<b>2</b>
<c>3</c>
<d>4</d>
<e>5</e>
</parent>

generates...

name is text is
name is a text is 1
name is text is
name is b text is 2
name is text is
name is c text is 3
name is text is
name is d text is 4
name is text is
name is e text is 5
name is text is

Each real node is intersperced with two phantom empty nodes.

Will attempt to look into this myself, just wondering if anyone has come across
this.

Thanks in advance.
