However, if you could influence the source xml to get rid of the "in" after the value of the COLWIDTH, then you could avoid both node-set() and two passes. If there is still some need for specifying "in", it could be done by using another attribute instead. Here is a sketch of how the stylesheet could work. I have omitted sorting the columns and other refinements but you can add them if necessary. <xsl:template match="/root"> <html> .... Other html stuff here ... <table> <xsl:call-template name='do-head'/> ... invoke template for row data here ... </table> </html> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name='do-head'> <xsl:variable name='cols' select='TGROUP/COLSPEC'/> <xsl:variable name='total-width' select='sum($cols/@COLWIDTH)'/> <tr> <xsl:for-each select='$cols'> <xsl:variable name='width' select='100*@COLWIDTH div $total-width'/> <th width='{$width}%'><xsl:value-of select='@COLNAME'/></th> </xsl:for-each> </tr> </xsl:template> Cheers, Tom P XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
