Generating TOC Section Names

Bad Astronaut · 05-03-2012, 06:53 AM

I have an epub with section tags as follows:

Code:

<p class="calibre1"><a id="bookmark6" class="calibre2"></a>Introduction</p>

Other sections have random text names. I can recognize the sections using the expression

Code:

//*[re:test(@id, "bookmark.*", "i")]

However the sections are all called "Unnamed". I can see why, the text I'm after (eg. Introduction) is in a different tag than the one I'm searching for. Is there a way to get calibre to pick up the section names in this case?

Match the parent of that tag, something like

//*[re:test(@id, "bookmark.*", "i")]/..

Thanks Kovid, that did the trick!

Some day I'll actually learn regex...
