Re: Iteration in XSL

You need to use recursivity.

For example :


---------- XML file : ----------
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>

<index>4</index>
---------- XSL file : ----------
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="index" name="index">
<xsl:param name="idx" select="normalize-space()"/>
<td>
<xsl:if test="$idx &gt; 0">
<xsl:call-template name="index">
<xsl:with-param name="idx" select="$idx - 1"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</td>
</xsl:template>


</xsl:stylesheet>
---------- result : ----------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<td><td><td><td><td/></td></td></td></td>
------------------------------

Hope this helps.
