Hi, You have 2 meta tags one holding the joining date and other the number of posts held. In your calls to the 'meta' template you need to specify which one of the 2 you would like to invoke. This could be done by modifying the way you apply your meta template as follows: <xsl:template match="object[@type='user']"> <xsl:apply-templates select="object[@type='meta' and normalize-space(data[@name = 'name']) = 'posts']"/> <td> <xsl:value-of select="data[@name='username']"/> </td> <td> <xsl:value-of select="data[@name='password']"/> </td> <xsl:apply-templates select="object[@type='meta' and normalize-space(data[@name = 'name']) = 'joined']"/> </xsl:template> Cheers, Omprakash.V Glenn Thomas Hvidsten To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <gth@xxxxxxxx cc: (bcc: omprakash.v/Polaris) o> Subject: [xsl] XSLT data fetching from multiple places in XML file 04/11/2005 02:02 PM Please respond to xsl-list Hi, I've got an XML file with data about a user. I want this data to be presented in a table in this order: ID : Name : Posts : Username : Password : Joined : Age My problem is that the data is not stored in exactly this way. The ID, Name and Age are stored in the top-level object tag, Username and Password in an object tag that is a child of the first tag, and Posts and Joined are sub-objects of the second tag. How can I fetch data from all around the XML-file to get it presented the way I want? The attached XSLT file does not work as I want it too. This data is of course just example data constructed to have the same structure and presentation as other data I'm supposed to transform in the same way. That way modifying the XML and presenting data in another way is out of the question.
