This is a classic grouping problem (you've even identified it as such!), and the classic response is, go see http://www.jenitennison.com/xslt/grouping Grouping is a bit tortuous in XSLT 1.0 (as witness the rather confused thread that followed your question). It becomes very easy in 2.0 with the new xsl:for-each-group construct.
