Use the position() function

<xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:value-of select="Data/Item[position()=3]"/>
</xsl:template>

Subject:  Accessing data from repeating values with the same name


Hi,

How do I access repeating nodes in an xml file outside of a for-each
statement.

As an example:

<Data>
    <Item>1</Item>
    <Item>2</Item>
    <Item>3</Item>
    <Item>4</Item>
    <Item>5</Item>
</Data>

How would I, say, get the value for 3rd item.

TIA

Mark
