Dave Pawsons XSLT FAQ has useful examples of this.

http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/sect21.html

There are two main approaches: - Repetiton - using recursive templates - a neat approach Jeni Tennison pointed out by selecting document nodes in the XSLT stylesheet and using position() to limit the number This can be used in a for-each loop e.g. <xsl:variable name='thisdoc' select='.'/> <xsl:for-each select='document("")//*[position() <= $num_times]'>   </xsl:for-each>

Hi,

This is probably very simple... I need to generate N elements on the fly. N
is a number in my source xml.

Source xml:
<Root>
   <data>4</data>
</Root>

Result xml:

<Root>
   <info/>
   <info/>
   <info/>
   <info/>
</Root>

Thanks, Kenny Bogoe
