Hey,

This is what I had done, but this does not seem to me
the correct and scalable solution. As value more than
5 can be any value and if the index goes beyond the
number of nodes in the xml the logic is going to fail.

I think I have to rely on xsl:choose and xsl:when
only.

Thanks giving the time
Deep
