Hi all.
I want to group nodes in an XML file, placing a heading above each category. The category is defined in an attribute which may be the same for a series of records. The code sample below shows what I want to do. I've been going round in circles trying combinations of variables, templates, for-each loops and I just can't seem to get a handle on the problem. Any help would be very gratefully received. XML Source: <authors>
<author name="Steven King">
<book genre="Drama" name="Book 1" />
<book genre="Drama" name="Book 2" />
<book genre="Drama" name="Book 3" />
<book genre="Sci-Fi" name="Book 4" />
<book genre="Sci-Fi" name="Book 5" />

<author name="Bill Bryson">
<book genre="Travel" name="Book 1" />
<book genre="Travel" name="Book 2" />
<book genre="History" name="Book 3" />

</authors>Desired output: <h2>Steven King</h2> <h3>Drama</h3> <ul> <li>Book 1</li> <li>Book 2</li> <li>Book 3</li> </ul> <h3>Sci-Fi</h3> <ul> <li>Book 4</li> <li>Book 5</li> </ul> <h2>Bill Bryson</h2> <h3>Travel</h3> <ul> <li>Book 1</li> <li>Book 2</li> </ul> <h3>History</h3> <ul> <li>Book 3</li> </ul> I am using classic ASP, MSXML2.DOMDocument.6.0
