Thanks for such a quick reply. Really appreciate your help. But the syntax
which you are suggesting is of XSLT-2.0 but I am using XSLT-1.0 so for me
"collection" and "for" statement says - "Invalid XPath".
Can you suggest something which goes with XSLT-1.0. I am doing all these
things in Eclipse Editor with the help of plugin provided for xml.

Thanks,
BR,
Varun
