Re: Iteration in XSLT

[David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx>]

   <count>5</count>
   <Hello>Hello, World!</Hello>

   Is it possible to display the text(Hello, World!) five times using XSLT
   processor?

well that isn't a well formed document but given



<x>
   <count>5</count>
   <Hello>Hello, World!</Hello>
</x>

you could do something like this (untested)

<xsl:template match="x">
 <xsl:apply-template select="Hello"/>
</xsl:tenplate>

<xsl:template match="Hello">
 <xsl:param name="x" select="/x/count"/>
 <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
 <xsl:if test="$x &gt; 1">
   <xsl:apply-template select=".">
    <xsl:with-param name="x" select="$x - 1"/>
   </xsl:apply-template>
 </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
