Borut, with your CML input, the following XSL

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">


<xsl:output indent="yes" method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<NewDataSet>
<xsl:for-each select="DataSet/Table[Level = 1]">
<xsl:variable name="next1" select="./following-sibling::*[1]"/>
<Transport name="${Description}">
<xsl:for-each select="following-sibling::Table[Level = 2 and not(./following-sibling::Table = $next1)]">
<Brand name="${Description}">
</Brand>
</xsl:for-each>
</Transport>
</xsl:for-each>
</NewDataSet>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


produces:

<NewDataSet>
 <Transport name="$Cars">
   <Brand name="$BMW"/>
   <Brand name="$Citroen"/>
   <Brand name="$Alfa Romeo"/>
 </Transport>
 <Transport name="$Motorcycles"/>
</NewDataSet>

I'm sure you can work out how to extend this to include models.

Regards,

Hello list,

I wish to transform an xml which has level information in each item (Table) to xml which has hierarchy as stated in those item's element.

<DataSet xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
   <Table>
       <Level>1</Level>
       <Description>Cars</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>2</Level>
       <Description>BMW</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>3</Level>
       <Description>316</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>3</Level>
       <Description>Z4</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>2</Level>
       <Description>Citroen</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>3</Level>
       <Description>C2</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>3</Level>
       <Description>C4 coupe</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>2</Level>
       <Description>Alfa Romeo</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>3</Level>
       <Description>156</Description>
   </Table>
   <Table>
       <Level>1</Level>
       <Description>Motorcycles</Description>
   </Table>
   ...
   ...
</DataSet>


Target xml should look something like this:


<NewDataSet>
   <Transport name="Cars">
      <Brand name="BMW">
         <Model>316</Model>
         <Model>Z4</Model>
      </Brand>
      <Brand name="Citroen">
         <Model>C2</Model>
         <Model>C4 coupe</Model>
      </Brand>
      <Brand name="Alfa Romeo">
         <Model>156</Model>
      </Brand>     </Transport>
   <Transport name="Motorcycle">
      ...
   </Transport>
</NewDataSet>
