Any advice on how to do the following would be greatly appreciated. I
need to combine and dedupe a list of authors, compiling all children
of grouped <author> into one <author> (grouped on <authorizedName>),
but deduping the <authorizedName>. See example below. I think I need
to use an XSL 2.0 for-each-group, but am not sure how. Duplicate
author elements will not be adjacent to each other. Thanks for any
help!
Two author records for the same <authorizedName>:
<author>
<authorizedName>Joe Bob</authorizedName>
<nickName>J-Bob</nickName>
<title>Title1</title>
</author>
<author>
<authorizedName>Joe Bob</authorizedName>
<nickName>Joe</nickName>
<title>Title2</title>
</author>
Turn into a single author record, compiling all children but deduping
<authorizedName>:
<author>
<authorizedName>Joe Bob</authorizedName>
<nickName>Joe</nickName>
<nickName>J-Bob</nickName>
<exampleTitle>Title1</exampleTitle>
<exampleTitle>Title2</exampleTitle>
</author>
