Hi Joris

This is an example of data I have pulled from another source and I will be
looking for the same structure.  The fields are obviously named slightly
different but you get the idea.  This is the output I receive once run
through Oxygen using Xalan.

Im not too sure where the XML / XSL disagree (original post)- could you
point that out for me.

(different <FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string"
attrname="starpoint2"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="starpoint3"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="starpoint4"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="image1"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="image2"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="image3"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="image4"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="street"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="town"></FIELD>
<FIELD WIDTH="255" fieldtype="string" attrname="county"></FIELD>
</FIELDS>
</METADATA>
<ROWDATA><ROW county="East Sussex" town="Brighton" street="Bevendean

</ROWDATA>

Many Thanks,
James

Your XML and XSLT disagree (you're attempting to extract nodes that do not
exist).
Could you provide the output you'd like to have? Then I might have a better
chance to put you on the right track...
