Hello All, I hope somebody can help me :)

Let me explain the project, I have two xml files (courses_codes.xml and courses.xml)
, I need to read this files and converted them to XSL-FO. The goal is to produce
a PDF file that contains course catalog information for a particular course
group (e.g. AFAM, CSCI, BIOL, etc.) for the 2003-2004 academic year. Also the
XSLT should accept a parameter named "group" that will determine which course group
information will be used (e.g. values for group might be "CSCI", "BIOL", "CHEM", etc).
The XSLT should also accept a parameter named "year".


The XLS-FO first creates a title, using the fullname of the course group selected,
them creates a Table of Contect (TOC) with all the courses, and those courses are
linked to an individual page containing the course information.


The courses in a group has to be unique, and the ones selected using the
global parameters (group, year)

So my questions is how can achive this ??

My XML files are :

courses_codes.xml

<courses_codes>
<course_groups>
<course_group code="AFAM" name="African American Studies"/>
<course_group code="ANTH" name="Anthropology and Archaeology"/>
</course_groups>
</courses_codes>

courses.xml

<dce_courses>
<course acad_year="2003" term_id="2" crn="21135">
