RE: Re: [xsl] Count the node from zero instead of one

[Rashi Bhardwaj <rashi.bhardwaj@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Mukul,

I am sorry mention in my query that I can use xslt 1.0. Sincere
apologies for the same. Is it possible to perform the same function
with xslt 1.0?

Please let me know....Cant we take the value in a variable instead of
element ''position''?

Thanks,
Rashi
