Subject: Re: [xsl] Splitting data into smaller groups for HTML output. From: Mike Rumble <mike.rumble@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2005 19:03:14 +0000 |
Thanks Wendell, The way I'm looking to split the items into groups is as follows. 1 to 5 items - 1 group 6 to 10 items - 2 groups 11 to 15 items - 3 groups 16 - 20 items - 4 groups 21 - 25 items - 5 groups So the number of groups will in fact depend on the number of <source> nodes in the XML file. The <source> nodes will are already in the correct order in the XML file so I don't need to sort them in any other way in the XSL. Cheers, Mike.
