I'm not sure if I'm following the code correctly, but it looks as if you're trying to print the position of the layer_params element amongst other layer_params elements in the document, but only for certain of those layer_params elements. The easiest way to do something to all but the last of a list is to iterate over the list in order and pick out the last one. To do this, you need to be interested in all the items in the list. So what about only selecting those layer_params elements that fulfil the condition, and using xsl:number to number them? Something like: <xsl:for-each select="//layer_params [key('state-lookup', substring-after(../data_params/data_description_params /properties/property/@value, '
'))/EXIST = 'TRUE']"> <xsl:number level="any" /> <xsl:if test="position() != last()">,</xsl:if> </xsl:for-each> This won't work if the call to the 'state-lookup' key has to occur in the document holding the ROWSET elements rather than the document holding the layer_params element. If that's the case, I suggest always generating the comma, and then stripping the comma from the resulting string using the substring() function. I hope that helps, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
