xml-xsl transformation

[sgxbytes]

Hi,
xml:..........
[code=xml]
<catalog>
<cd>
<title def="2" >Empire1 </title>
<title def="2" >Empire2 </title>
<title def="2" >Empire3 </title>
<title def="2">
<run>raj1</run>
</title>
<title def="2">
<run>raj2</run>
</title>
<title def="2">
<run>raj3</run>
</title>
</cd>
</catalog>
[/code]
when i require to select the values which are inside run tag alone i used this xsl statement to get the output
[code=xml]<xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd/title[@def='2']">
<xsl:value-of select="./run"/>
</xsl:for-each>[/code]

the below one gives me all the values which are in <title def="2" > tags along with the values of child tag run

<xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd/title[@def='2']">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>

how can i get the values from <title def="2" > tag ommiting the run tag.

i hav used the conditions like

<xsl:if test="string-length(normaliz e-space(catalog/cd/title[@def='2']/run)) &gt; 0">

to show the values under run tag alone..

but how to get the values other than run tag....

Thanks
Raj..

If you want the text of <title> without the text of the <run> inside, use the text() node test:

<xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd/title[@def='2']">
  <xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
</xsl:for-each>

regards
