    <p>I'm using an XSLT stylesheet (by Antennahouse) to convert XHTML to an XSL-FO file. I defined a blank line in my XHTML file as 2 consecutive HTML BR tags. Now there is no native support for a blank line in the XSL-FO format. I want to work around this limitation by adding a height to the fo:block that the stylesheet inserts for a BR tag. However I'm new to the XSLT language and I'm having some problems doing this. </p> <p>I can figure out how to insert this height for every BR tag I encounter, but I only want the blank line to be inserted when there are 2 BR tags after each other (otherwise a blank line would be inserted after every text followed by a BR tag.)</p> <p>I got as far as making a 'nonsense' expression (11 is greater than 10) which will define when to insert a regular fo:block or an fo:block with space-after="1em". Obviously this expression makes no sense, what it should check on is whether this BR element is the second one in a row. If anyone could help me out here or point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated. This is what I have right now:</p> <pre><code>&lt;xsl:template match="html:br"&gt; &lt;xsl:choose&gt; &lt;xsl:when test="11 &amp;gt; 10"&gt; &lt;fo:block space-after="1em"&gt; &lt;xsl:call-template name="process-common-attributes"/&gt; &lt;/fo:block&gt; &lt;/xsl:when&gt; &lt;xsl:otherwise&gt; &lt;fo:block&gt; &lt;xsl:call-template name="process-common-attributes"/&gt; &lt;/fo:block&gt; &lt;/xsl:otherwise&gt; &lt;/xsl:choose&gt; </code></pre> <p></p> <p>For reference sake, this is a piece of XHTML where I want the double BR tags to be transformed into a blank line, but the single BR tags should simply be a regular line break.</p> <pre><code> &lt;div style="color: #000000; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"&gt; &lt;span&gt;description&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;using&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;multiple&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;lines&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;with&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;blank&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;lines&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre>
