Hi,Ron

A nice xslt for the  problem you are addressing has been given by Dimitre
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/xsl-list/2001-07/msg01845.html

you  get The included multiple-column-template.xsl  from  this post,
and work with following revised listing.

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:include href="multiple-column-template.xsl"/>

    <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:variable name="source" select="/imageList/image"/>
    <xsl:variable name="numCols" select="3"/>

    <xsl:template match="/">
      <table>
        <xsl:apply-templates mode="multiColumn"
                             select="$source">
          <xsl:with-param name="numCols" select="$numCols"/>
          <xsl:with-param name="nodes"
                        select="$source"
          />
        </xsl:apply-templates>
      </table>
    </xsl:template>

 </xsl:stylesheet>

Hope you can find it useful.

Cheers,
