RE: [xsl] A tricky problem

Carlos, I somewhat lost track of what you're trying to do, in the long-winded explanation -- what works for me is seeing input, required output, then any explanation of what changes may/not be made. Anyway, see this thread: http://www.biglist.com/lists/xsl-list/archives/200506/msg00517.html

Hello!

I'm trying to create a piece of xsl code that dinamicaly displays items on a table.This seems a basic problem at first glance, but if you're curious(and a bit pacient) please continue reading :)
This is my item list:(temp.xml)
<fd:selection-list>
	<fd:item value="Dcor"/>
	<fd:item value="DAo"/>
	<fd:item value="InsAo"/>
	<fd:item value="EstAo"/>
</fd:selection-list>
Note that i cannot change the item properties, e.g. , to add another attribute like position="row" to fd:item nor can i add description tags between item lists e.g. :
<fd:item value="Dcor"/>
<row></row>
<fd:item value="DAo"/>
The description of this item lists is passed to the xsl by snippet:(temp_action.xml) <table border="0"> <tr> (...) <td> <ft:widget id="diagnostico_opcoes"> <fi:styling list-type="radio" list-orientation="horizontal" line="2" column="2"/> </ft:widget> </td> (...) </tr> where we describe the list orientation layout and number of columns and rows we want on a table.

The piece of xsl code which iterates through the items on this list is given by this snippet: <xsl:for-each select="descendant-or-self::fi:item"> (..) </xsl:for-each> although the following piece of code also produces the same results: <xsl:for-each select="fi:selection-list/fi:item"> (...) </xsl:for-each>

Inside the iteration code snippet, i should build a set of instructions that could produce an HTML output like <td> <input name="Dcor" .../> <td/> <td> <input name="Dao" .../> <td/> <tr> <td> <input name="InsAo" .../> <td/> <td> <input name="EstAo" .../> <td/> <tr/>

My last attemp to produce this, was the following piece of code:
<xsl:variable name="elements" select="count(descendant-or-self::fi:item)"/>
<xsl:for-each select="descendant-or-self::fi:item">
 <xsl:variable name="temp" select="($elements)-(count(following-sibling::*))"/>
		<xsl:if test="$temp&lt;$line">
			<tr>
			<xsl:if test="temp&lt;$column">
				<td>
					<input type="radio" ..../>
				</td>
			</xsl:if>
			</tr>
		</xsl:if>
(...)
This would work great if instead of if test="..." i had a for-each select="(1 to $line)" for-each select="(1 to $column)" and although this is possible since i'm using Saxon8 it doesn't do the trick for the following reasons: - i should only change lines if i have $line>=2 - the following snippet is invalid as a mean to insert lines between columns: <xsl:if test="$line>=2"> <tr> </xsl:if>

(code to show inputs here)
	<xsl:if test="$line&gt;=2">
	</tr>
	</xsl:if>
