Hi,

as a beginner, I try to transform an XML structure like this one :

<SOURCES>
   <SOURCE CODE="SOURCE_1">
           <INDEX>
               <INDEX_A>A1</INDEX_A>
               <INDEX_B>B1</INDEX_B>
               <INDEX_C>C1</INDEX_C>
           </INDEX>
   </SOURCE>
   <SOURCE CODE="SOURCE_2">
           <INDEX>
              <INDEX_A>A2</INDEX_A>
               <INDEX_B>B2</INDEX_B>
               <INDEX_C>C2</INDEX_C>
           </INDEX>
   </SOURCE>


into an HTML table :


<html>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>INDEX_A</td>
<td>A1</td>
<td>A2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>INDEX_B</td>
<td>B1</td>
<td>B2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>INDEX_C</td>
<td>C1</td>
<td>C2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

I have two difficulties :
1. How to select the name of an element (in my case : <INDEX_A> must become : <td>INDEX_A</td> ).
2. How to write the xslt in order to treat /at once/ EACH INDEX FOR EACH SOURCE. I have some difficulties because of the two xsl:for-each that must coexist.



I have tried :


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<table border="1">
<xsl:for-each select="/SOURCES/SOURCE[1]/INDEX/*">
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="/SOURCES/SOURCE">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="INDEX/*"/>
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


but the result :

A1 	A2
A1 	A2
A1 	A2


is, as you see and have guessed, bad.........


Thanks a lot for your help.
