RE: Displaying entries in a table vertically

Hi Alan,

Yes, I think there is...

If you want to figure it out, it is through use of the position() function.

I'm sure I've has to do something like this before, but I'll have to look
around my stylesheets to find an examle

I think it was a matter of selecting the elements into nodes in a variable
by testing if the postion was 1, 2 or 3, then outputting $variable1,
$variable2 and $variable3

If I find an examle I'll pass it on.

Regards,
Tim :)

I am writing an XSL sheet which produces an HTML table
using some entries (which are sorted by my XSL before
displaying) of an XML file. Pretty straightforward...

The problem is that the specifications doc. that I
have, requires me to display the entries in the table
sorted in a vertical fashion.

This means that the spec. requires the entries to be
like:
A P U
B Q V
C R

whereas, since I am outputting the entries row-wise, I
am getting the output:
A B C
P Q R
U V

Is there any way I can display the entries sorted in a
vertical fashion in the table using my XSL sheet?

Thanks,
Cheers,
Alan.
