Hi,

you can do loops, if you use recursion:

<xsl:template name="loop">
  <xsl:param name="x"/>
  &#160;
  <xsl:if test="$x > 1">
    <xsl:call-template name="loop">
      <xsl:with-param name="x">
        <xsl:value-of select="$x - 1"/>
      </xsl:with-param>
    </xsl:call-template>
  </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

bye
Frank

->Hi,
->
->Here is a funny one : corresponding to an attribute level, I 
->want to insert 
->a certain number of spaces before the beggining of a line in 
->HTML, i.e. :
->XML :
-><listing level="4">something coming from a screen</listing>
->
->HTML (in courier):
->     something coming from a screen
->
->Since I don't know any way of making a loop, and given the 
->fact that spaces 
->do not make it in HTML, my only guess till now was (beware, 
->this is ugly) :
-><xsl:value-of 
->select="substring('&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&
->nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;', 
->1, @level+1)"/>
->
->Any more beautiful idea ? (this work almost, except that I 
->get extra spaces 
->sometime, if I have another markup at the beginning of the line)
->--
