Hello everybody,

sorry but I am a novice in this field and probably my question has an easy solution, but I cannot find it. I'd like to write a number near non-empty descriptions as shown in the following code: <xsl:template match="itemSet"> <tr> <td> <xsl:if test="normalize-space(itemDesc)"> <xsl:number level="multiple" format="1. "/> <xsl:value-of select="itemDesc"/> </xsl:if> </td> <td> .... </td> </tr> .... </xsl:template>

The problem is that also the empty elements are taken into account even if the number does not appear. In other words I get something like

1. Description 1        xxxx
                        xxxx
3. Description 3        xxxx
                        xxxx
5. Description 4        xxxx

and I'd like '3.' to be '2.' and '5.' to be '3.'

Does anybody know how should I do. Thanx a lot for your help.

Sergej
