Thank you very much, you´re right. I´m yet not really in the thinking of templates. I still try to "program" my xslt like I´m used to do it with Java-Programs.


How about using a list instead of a table and let (X)HTML do the formatting for you like:

    * point1
          o subpoint1.1
                + subsubpoint1.1.1
                      # subsubpoint1.1.1.1
          o subpoint1.2
    * point2
    * point3
    * point4


test.xml: =============================== <?xml-stylesheet href="test.xsl" type="text/xsl"?> <root> <topic name="point1"> <topic name="subpoint1.1"> <topic name="subsubpoint1.1.1"> <topic name="subsubpoint1.1.1.1"> </topic> </topic> </topic> <topic name="subpoint1.2"> </topic> </topic> <topic name="point2"> </topic> <topic name="point3"> </topic> <topic name="point4"> </topic> </root>


test.xsl:
===============================
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0">


  <xsl:template match="/">
  <html><head></head><body>
  	<ul>
      <xsl:apply-templates/>
	  </ul>
	</body></html>
  </xsl:template>


<xsl:template match="topic"> <li> <xsl:value-of select="@name"/> <xsl:if test="topic"> <ul> <xsl:apply-templates/> </ul> </xsl:if> </li> </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="@*|text()"/>
</xsl:transform>
