Another FAQ!

There is no simple way of doing grouping in XSLT. In some cases it can be
done, painfully and generally rather slowly, by testing each item to see if
it is the same as the previous item.

There is a proprietary feature in SAXON XSL to do grouping, the saxon:group
element. Give it a try.
