Re: [xsl] Using xsl:for-each for every 2 elements ?

Hi Ahsan,

sorry, variables in template calls are called parameter.
Assuming you are in <data>. Code not tested

     <xsl:call-template name="Loop">
       <xsl:with-param name="Flights" select="flights/flt"/>
       <xsl:with-param name="Availibility" select="availability/avail"/>
     </xsl:call-template>

<xsl:template name="Loop">
 <xsl:param name="Flights"/>
 <xsl:param name="Availibility"/>
 <xsl:choose>
   <xsl:when test="count($Flights)=0">
   </xsl:when>
   <xsl:otherwise>
     <! -- do processing of $Flights[1] and $Availibility[1] -->
     <xsl:call-template name="Loop">
       <xsl:with-param name="Flights" select="$Flights[position()!=1]"/>
       <xsl:with-param name="Availibility" 
select="$Availibility[position()!=1]"/>
     </xsl:call-template>
   </xsl:otherwise>
 </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Cheers,

Juergen
