If you are looking for a simple count of each object within a node(not a sum of objects that includes the table subnode), then both of these will work: <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each select="//TABLE"> <xsl:value-of select="concat(count(DPROW/OBJECT), ' ')"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates select="//TABLE"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="TABLE"> <xsl:apply-templates select="DPROW"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="DPROW"> <xsl:value-of select="concat(count(OBJECT), ' ')"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> However, if you need the sum then you will need to use some recurision(off hand this is what I am thinking). I think your problem with DPROW/OBJECT is that you are getting a count based on the first table context. -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of scott gabelhart Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2004 2:40 PM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [xsl] XPath statement for traversing a nested node structure I need some assistance with traversing a nested xml input file structure. I need to determine between the begining of one nested structure and another the number of occurances of a particular element. Example: <TABLE><DPROW><OBJECT></OBJECT></DPROW></TABLE> would yield an occurance of one OBJECT element using the XPath statement DPROW/OBJECT. The above XPath statement falls apart though when I introduce nested structures. <TABLE><DPROW><OBJECT></OBJECT><TABLE><DPROW><OBJECT></OBJECT><OBJECT></ OBJECT></DPROW></TABLE></DPROW></TABLE> Inner most TABLE element has two OBJECT elements and the outer TABLE element would yield one OBJECT element. What is a valid XPath statement need for traversing the nested xml structure above? Any help would be greatly appreciated. - Scott XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
