Re: help with numbering (xsl:number)

Hi, Jerry

You should make two template to match separately for each layer of chapter.
You can't separate the 'chapter' and the 'chapter/chapter' if you select
'//chapter'.
There is a good example in my xsl example of own homepage:
http://www.nease.net/~element/xml/xmltable.xml

Hope you enjoy it.
