How do I > translate the count to number of spaces( )? The simplest (to understand) way is to have an xsl:variable containing a sufficiently long string of spaces. Then take the exact number of spaces using the substring() function. Another way (when one doesn't know the maximum possible number of spaces that will be needed) is to use a recursive named template -- e.g. one from exslt, or this one: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/xsl-list/2001-07/msg01040.html Or use the "iter" template from the FXSL library. The last solution is the most generic and can be used to implement any iteration of the type "Do something N times". Hope this helped. ===== Cheers, Dimitre Novatchev. http://fxsl.sourceforge.net/ -- the home of FXSL __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
