It is the first time that I use Stylus. I have a little question. Please let me show you my scenario:

In my company structure, every customer has 3 records with their data:

RECORDID1Field1Field2Filed3
RECORDID2Field1Field2
RECORDID3Field1Field2Filed3

This structure is repeated for every customer that I have. Imagine that I have 3 customer so my real input data is:

RECORDID1Field1Field2Filed3
RECORDID2Field1Field2
RECORDID3Field1Field2Filed3
RECORDID1Field1Field2Filed3
RECORDID2Field1Field2
RECORDID3Field1Field2Filed3
RECORDID1Field1Field2Filed3
RECORDID2Field1Field2
RECORDID3Field1Field2Filed3


I need to convert this information to this xml output:

<root>
<customer>
<RECORDID1>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID1>
<RECORDID2>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
</RECORDID2>
<RECORDID3>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID3>
</customer>
<customer>
<RECORDID1>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID1>
<RECORDID2>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
</RECORDID2>
<RECORDID3>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID3>
</customer>
<customer>
<RECORDID1>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID1>
<RECORDID2>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
</RECORDID2>
<RECORDID3>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID3>
</customer>
</root>


Instead of the correct output, my wrong result is being this one:

<root>
<customer>
<RECORDID1>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID1>
<RECORDID2>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
</RECORDID2>
<RECORDID3>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID3>
<RECORDID1>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID1>
<RECORDID2>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
</RECORDID2>
<RECORDID3>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID3>
<RECORDID1>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID1>
<RECORDID2>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
</RECORDID2>
<RECORDID3>
<Field1>xxx</Field1>
<Field2>yyy</Field2>
<Field3>zzz</Field3>
</RECORDID3>
</customer>
</root>


I am mixing information from different customer. How could I separate information from different customers? How can I set up the product to tell it when a different customer starts in a different node? How can I set up my parent and childs when I work with fixed width length files and parent and childs are in different lines?


Thanks in advace

Regards

Julio
