even the odds
Hi Yan,

an example:

<nodes>
    <node>1</node>
    <node>2</node>
    <node>3</node>
    <node>4</node>
    <node>5</node>
    <node>6</node>
</nodes>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <xsl:template match="/nodes">
        <table>
            <xsl:apply-templates select="node[position() mod 2 = 1]"/>
        </table>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="node">
        <tr>
            <td><xsl:value-of select="."/></td>
            <td><xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::node[1]"/></td>
        </tr>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

You match only on every second node, so you know where to close and open
<tr>. And while processing these nodes you select their value and the value
of the next one.

Regards,

Joerg
