By default, xsl:number should give you the number of the current element within the list of its siblings that have the same type and name. So if your source is: <list> <item>entry 1</item> <item>entry 2</item> </list> <list> <item>entry 1</item> <item>entry 2</item> </list> Then you should be able to do: <xsl:for-each select="list"> <fo:list-block> <xsl:for-each select="item"> <fo:list-item> <fo:list-item-label> <xsl:number format="1." /> </fo:list-item-label> <fo:list-item-body> <xsl:value-of select="." /> </fo:list-item-body> </fo:list-item> </xsl:for-each> </fo:list-block> </xsl:for-each> If that's approximately what you're doing and it isn't working, then please post again, this time with the source XML for the lists and the XSLT code that you're using, and we should be able to help. [BTW, since the numbers are being supplied by XSLT, it shouldn't make any difference what XSL-FO processor you're using (though it might make a difference what XSLT processor you're using).] Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
