[xsl] Numbering Consecutive Nodes

["Mark Grant" <mark.grant@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am having significant issues numbering consecutive nodes in XSLT V1.

My source XML document looks like (dots to represent rather large
sub-trees:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<aggregator>
  <data_source type="Memory Data Source" name="Page Data">
...  ...
  </data_source>
  <data_source type="Sql Server Database Data Source" name="SQL
Content">
    <PageContent>
      <MDD_Site_Content>
        <content_id>88aba99f-cddd-4bad-9fd6-da6a10313f4c</content_id>

<page_webpart_id>e7bf951e-0561-41a3-9aa0-6f9f9b96cb53</page_webpart_id>

<unique_content_id>e647fb4d-4345-45e2-a3c7-7d8ae557557d</unique_content_
id>
        <MDD_Site>
... ...
        </MDD_Site>
      </MDD_Site_Content>
      <MDD_Dealership_Content>
... ...
      </MDD_Dealership_Content>
    </PageContent>
  </data_source>
</aggregator>

My output document needs to look like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<aggregator>
  <data_source type="Memory Data Source" name="Page Data">
...  ...
  </data_source>
  <data_source type="Sql Server Database Data Source" name="SQL
Content">
    <PageContent id="1">
      <MDD_Site_Content id="2">
        <content_id
id="3">>88aba99f-cddd-4bad-9fd6-da6a10313f4c</content_id>
        <page_webpart_id
id="4">e7bf951e-0561-41a3-9aa0-6f9f9b96cb53</page_webpart_id>
        <unique_content_id
id="5">e647fb4d-4345-45e2-a3c7-7d8ae557557d</unique_content_id>
        <MDD_Site id="6">
... ...
        </MDD_Site>
      </MDD_Site_Content>
      <MDD_Dealership_Content id="20">
... ...
      </MDD_Dealership_Content>
    </PageContent>
  </data_source>
</aggregator>

I have therefore tried to use <xsl:number> and a template that looks a
bit like:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
	<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />

	<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
	  <xsl:copy>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
	  </xsl:copy>
	</xsl:template>

	<xsl:template match="PageContent//node()">
		<xsl:copy>
			<xsl:attribute name="id"><xsl:number
count="node()"/></xsl:attribute>
			<xsl:apply-templates
select="PageContent//node()" />
		</xsl:copy>
	</xsl:template>


</xsl:stylesheet>

I am having real issues iterating through all the descendants of the
PageContent node and applying the same template to them (irrespective of
numbering!)

Any help appreciated.
