Michael and Nick,

many thanks for these hints. It were actually text nodes, that disorganized my use of position().

Yes. Another solution is to use

<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>

to remove the whitespace text nodes.

It sounds like you've been caught by something that bit me recently.
What's probably happening is that your

<xsl:apply-templates />

is matching all nodes, _including_ whitespace text nodes between the
elements; thus you get:

1. whitespace
2. Cell
3. whitespace
4. Cell
