I am trying to write a template to concatenate values from an element based on another key element. The source document looks like this: <test> <rec> <some_id>1</some_id> <some_text>text for id 1</some_id> </rec> <rec> <some_id>2</some_id> <some_text>first line of text for id 2</some_text> </rec> <rec> <some_id>2</some_id> <some_text>second line of text for id 2</some_text> </rec> <rec> <some_id>2</some_id> <some_text>nth line of text for id 2</some_text> </rec> <rec> <some_id>3</some_id> <some_text>text for id 3</some_text> </rec> </test> The number of <rec>s can vary and each ID can have as many lines (thus recs) of text. In terms of the id element, they are duplicates, but I need to concatenate the related the element (some_text) and produce one single rec in the output like this: <test> <rec> <some_id>1</some_id> <some_text>text for id 1</some_text> </rec> <rec> <some_id>2</some_id> <some_text>first line of text for id 2 second line of text for id 2 nth line of text for id 2</some_text> </rec> <rec> <some_id>3</some_id> <some_text>text for id 3</some_text> </rec> </test> Could anyone help me on this. Thank you very much in advance. Ben XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
