Vishal KumarSubject: XSL repeat the parent node for each child node
Author: Vishal Kumar

Hi gurus,

For each child node, I want to duplicate my parent node so that the resulting xml, contains only one child for the parent node with the other nodes being the same.

Here is a sample input

<a>
<a1>header1</a1>
<a2>header2</a2>
<a3>
<a31>
<a311>line_1</a311>
<a311>line_2</a311>
</a31>
<a32>5o$</a32>
<a33>Add</a33>
</a3>
<a4>account_holder</a4>
</a>


What I want to do is - repeat a3 for as many times as the node a311 comes. Rest all nodes are retained

Output

<a>
<a1>header1</a1>
<a2>header2</a2>
<a3>
<a31>
<a311>line_1</a311>
</a31>
<a32>5o$</a32>
<a33>Add</a33>
</a3>
<a3>
<a31>
<a311>line_2</a311>
</a31>
<a32>5o$</a32>
<a33>Add</a33>
</a3>
<a4>account_holder</a4>
</a>

TIA
Vishal
