Cheers, Wendell
hello,
I need some help doing the following, I can't seem to figure out how to do this in XSL
I need to convert something like this <myElement> <foo name="foobar1"/> <foo name="foobar2"/> <foo name="foobar1"/> <foo name="foobar3"/> <foo name="foobar1"/> <foo name="foobar1"/> <foo name="foobar3"/> </myElement>
and the output after running it through the XSL would be
numberOccurrences[] = {1, 1, 2, 1, 3, 4, 2};
basically for each foo with a duplicate name you put the occurrence number of it in the array at the correct position.
You see that foobar1 occurs 4 times, the 1st occurrence is at position 0, while 2nd occurrence is at position 2, 3rd at position 4, and 5th at position 5. etc.
I don't know how loop through the nodes, and keep track of how many occurrences there are up to the given position.
