It is best to assume that you are using a massively parallel machine and all items in the loop are executed _in parallel_ and assembled into the final output in a specified order which might be totally unrelated to the order in which they are evaluated. (Even if in fact you are on a sequential machine an XSLT compiler may (and some do) execute the items in orders which don't correspond to the natural order that you might expect. So don't break the loop: just select the items that you want to process, for example if you want to process all the children up to and including the first apple do <xsl:for-each select="apple[1]/preceding-sibling::*|apple[1]"> David ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
