Hi, > I want to traverse through an existing xml document twice; > during one traversal i need to get the maximum count of the node. > and during the other traversal i need to output the results, which has the > heading lines as the maximum counted nodes. the general advise is: use modes. Something like <xsl:template match="/"> <!-- first pass --> <xsl:variable name="count"> <xsl:apply-templates mode="count-mode" /> </xsl:variable> <!-- now $count is available --> <!-- second pass --> <xsl:apply-templates> <xsl:with-param name="count" select="$count" /> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="*" mode="count-mode"> do something to count the nodes </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="*"> <xsl:param name="count" /> normal processing </xsl:template> Hope this helps, Oliver /-------------------------------------------------------------------\ | ob|do Dipl.Inf.
