 Hi Viral,
Please try the XSL.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="key-state" match="record"
use="@state"/>
<xsl:template match="/root">
<html>
<table>
<xsl:for-each select="record">
<xsl:if test="generate-id(.) =
generate-id(key('key-state', @state)[1])">
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="key('key-state', @state)">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="@city"/>
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Regards,
Mukul
