Question

Here is an excerpt of my xml :

Answer 1

XPath 2.0 has the operators '<<' and '>>' where node1 << node2 is true if node1 precedes node2 in document order. So based on that with XPath 2.0 in an XSLT 2.0 stylesheet where the current node is the node[@id = '1'] you could use

  following-sibling::node[not(text()) and . << current()/following-sibling::node[@od][1]]

That also needs the current() function from XSLT, so that is why I said "with XPath 2.0 in an XSLT 2.0 stylesheet". The syntax above is pure XPath, in an XSLT stylesheet you would need to escape '<<' as '<<'.
