 Looping in XSLT(old question
Hi, all

I am trying to write a template that will generate a table based on a xml
file and right now I don't have any
clue how to do it.

If I have a source file looks like this

<foo>
	<bar id='1'>
		<someElement>a</someElement>
	</bar>
	<bar id='2'>
		<someElement>b</someElement>
	</bar>
	<bar id='3'>
		<someElement>c</someElement>
	</bar>
	<bar id='4'>
		<someElement>d</someElement>
	</bar>
	<bar id='5'>
		<someElement>e</someElement>
	</bar>
	...
</foo>

Can I write a style sheet that will transform the source file above to a
html table like this?

<table>
	<tr>
		<td>a</td>
		<td>b</td>
		<td>c</td>
	</tr>
	<tr>
		<td>d</td>
		<td>e</td>
		<td>&nbsp;</td>
	</tr>
	...
</table>

Basicly, I want to generate N columns per row but I don't know how many
"bar"s I have in the source file.

Any hint or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Shuai
