The attached .xsl file translates one XML file to another.
The .xsl file will handle a source XML in which "Item" repeats no more that 9 times.
Is there a way that I could just have one loop where the names of the resulting nodes are dynamically set?

Thanks

Instead of this:
<exp_sl_manufacturer_business_num1>
<xsl:value-of select="Manufacture"/>
</exp_sl_manufacturer_business_num1>
try this:
<xsl:element name="{concat('exp_sl_manufacturer_business_num', position())}">
<xsl:value-of select="Manufacture"/>
</xsl:element>

Excellent!
Thanks Toni.

ps
The combination of Stylus Studio and having this forum allows me to continue down this "new technology" path.

Much appreciated.
