How can i > bring that variable within the scope(context). You can pass it as a parameter to the template that you are calling, but there's no need to even do that. Instead of the for-each, do this: <xsl:apply-templates select="*"/> And then you can use position() within the templates that match. For example, instead of the xsl:copy-of, use <xsl:value-of select="position() -1"/> - Mike ____________________________________________________________________________ mike j. brown | xml/xslt: http://skew.org/xml/ denver/boulder, colorado, usa | resume: http://skew.org/~mike/resume/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
