RE: xsl:number problem

Thank you! Thank you! and thank you!!!!  I added <xsl:if test="../publisher='Wave' or ../publisher='NETg' "> when I got your email.  I have the output of 1,2, empty cell, 4, 5 withou the condition added in the count pattern.  But yours gives exactly what my output should look like.

Best regards,

Charlene

Hello Charlene,

what you wan't is:

<xsl:number level="any" count="productId[../publisher='Wave' or ../publisher='NETg']"/>
or 
<xsl:number level="any" count="productId[following-sibling::publisher='Wave' or following-sibling::publisher='NETg']"/>

That's because publisher is not a child element node of productId but it is a sibling.
This should give you four cells in your worksheet, but...

... you will get 1, 3, 4, and 5.
What you really wan't is (I'm guessing): 1, 2, 4, and 5.
In this case you must prevent productId 3 from "overwriting" productId 2.
(I do not know if it really overwrites, but you are generating two
contents for one cell.)
Try:

  <xsl:template match="productId">
    <xsl:if test="../publisher='Wave' or ../publisher='NETg' ">
     <gmr:Cell Col="0" ValueType="60">
      <xsl:variable name="rownumber"><xsl:number level="any" count="productId[../publisher='Wave' or ../publisher='NETg']"/></xsl:variable>
      <xsl:attribute name="Row">
         <xsl:value-of select="$rownumber"/>
      </xsl:attribute>
       <gmr:Content>
		<xsl:apply-templates/> 
	</gmr:Content>
     </gmr:Cell>
    </xsl:if>
  </xsl:template>


I guess you showed us only part of your stylesheet. You will need a template
for "publisher" to either generate that in a second column, or to suppress it.


Hope this helps,
Markus Abt
