David has given both a 2.0 and a 1.0 solution. I wouldn't write
anything different for what David wrote for XSLT 2.0.
But here's a slightly different 1.0 solution,
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />
<xsl:template match="x">
<result>
<xsl:apply-templates select="field[heading]" mode="a" />
</result>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="field" mode="a">
<fieldset>
<legend><xsl:value-of select="heading" /></legend>
<xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::field[1][text]"
mode="b" />
</fieldset>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="field" mode="b">
<p><xsl:value-of select="text" /></p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::field[1][text]"
mode="b" />
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
this is popularly known as the sibling recursion technique.

<field>
* <text>Sit</text>
</field>
<field>
* <heading>Third heading</heading>
</field>
<field>
* <text>Amet</text>
</field>
To
<fieldset>
