Re: Add attributes Processed File

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
What I'm trying to do is to group all elements "a" with attribute flag="true"
at the same level at the xml tree that has only one elemnt "b" with attribute
flag="true" among them.
In the example below I marked the group I'm trying to group.

<root>
 <a flag="false">
  <b flag="false"/>
 </a>
 <c>
  <b flag="false"/>
   <a flag="true"/> <--------------
   <b flag="true"/> <--------------
   <a flag="true"/> <--------------
   <a flag="true"/> <--------------
   <a flag="true"/> <--------------
  </b>
 </c>
</root>

the output, should be:

<root>
 <a flag="false">
  <b flag="false"/>
 </a>
 <c>
  <b flag="false"/>
    <group> <-------------- begin new element
      <a flag="true"/> <---------- selected group
      <b flag="true"/> <---------- selected group
      <a flag="true"/> <---------- selected group
      <a flag="true"/> <---------- selected group
      <a flag="true"/> <---------- selected group
    </group> <-------------- end new element
  </b>
 </c>
</root>

Thanks a lot,
Roger.
