Hello XSLT experts... I am trying to do something simple but it's
proving to be a major pain in the bottom. Can someone help?
I have a XML document with a list of records: <Record> <Data /> </Record> <Record> <Record> <......> <Record> And I need to output some of these records, but not all of them. The rules upon which I decide to output are complex, and I won't bore you with the details. Also, after every 5th record has been output, I need to write some kind of marker in the output stream. Something like this: Marker Record 1 Record 23 Record 45 Record 70 Record 72 Marker Record 83 .... How exactly would I go about doing this? In any other language, it's easy easy: If (yes_output_record)
{
count = count + 1; if (count modulo 5 = zero)
output_marker();output_record(); } I can't understand why it's so complicated to do something like this. Surely there must be some "easy as pie" solution out there? Thank you.
