Re: [xsl] "grouping" footnote numbers

[Brandon Ibach <brandon.ibach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

By calling key() from the context of the xref, you're only getting
back the xrefs with the same @href, so you'll only ever have one group
and position() will only ever return 1.

It may not be terribly efficient, but you could add this to the
<xsl:number> in the XSLT code you posted:

count="xref[not(@href = preceding::xref/@href)]"

Or, replace the <xsl:number> completely with:

<xsl:value-of select="count(distinct-values(preceding::xref/@href)) + 1"/>

Determining which one works better is left as an exercise for the OP. :)

either because the grouping is based on a key or because this appears in the
"xref" template?
