Re: [xsl] math get maximum and subtract 1

["sascha" <sascha@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks again,
i tried to implement that but it doesn't work.
I thought i understand what your're up to but... no output at all-
please have a look: ( column widths not yet dynamic, and i don't see why
there is only @col=0 processed, or isn't it? or is that cause if @col=0 is
"reached" we need a new row?!)  just a little confused.... :-/
anyway- the template is called but i don't get any output! what's wrong
here`?



<xsl:template match="DESCRIPTION_TABLE">

<xsl:variable name="nrows" select="DESCRIPTION_ITEM[last()]/@row + 1" />

  <fo:table table-layout="fixed" width="100%">

     <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(50)" />
   <fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(50)" />

    <fo:table-body>
      <xsl:for-each select="DESCRIPTION_ITEM[@col = 0]">
    <fo:table-row>
      <xsl:for-each select="../DESCRIPTION_ITEM[position() mod $nrows =
current()/@row + 1]">
        <fo:table-cell>
          <xsl:apply-templates />
        </fo:table-cell>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </fo:table-row>
  </xsl:for-each>

    </fo:table-body>
  </fo:table>
</xsl:template>
