Hi Ahmad,

Here's the solution to your problem:

groupSendReceive.xsl:
--------------------
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

  <xsl:output method="text"/>
  
  <xsl:key name="kByID" match="DIRECT" use="CHARACTER_ID"/>
  <xsl:key name="kByTargetID" match="DIRECT" use="TARGET_CHARACTER_ID"/>
  
    <xsl:variable name="vUniqueCharactersSending" 
                  select="LOG/DIRECT[generate-id() 
                                    = 
                                     generate-id(key('kByID',
                                                      CHARACTER_ID
                                                     )[1]
                                                 )
                                    ]"/>
                                    
    <xsl:variable name="vUniqueCharactersReceiving"

                                   count(key('kByTargetID',CHARACTER_ID)),
                                   $NL
                                   )"/>
    </xsl:for-each>
    
    <xsl:value-of select="$NL"/>
    <xsl:value-of select="concat('Number of characters having sent a message: ',
                                  $vNumCharactersSending,
                                  $NL
                                  )"/>
    
    <xsl:value-of select="concat('Number of characters having received a message: ',
                                  $vNumCharactersReceiving,
                                  $NL

                                  $vTotalSent div $vNumCharactersSending,
                                  '&#xA;',
                                  
                                  'Total received: ',
                                   $vTotalSent,
                                  ', Average received by a receiving character: ',
                                  $vTotalSent div $vNumCharactersReceiving,
                                  '&#xA;'
                                  
                                 )"/>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

When applied to the following source xml document:

groupSendReceive.xml:

    <TIME>'Mon, 26 Nov 2001 15:40:29 +0000'</TIME>
  </DIRECT></LOG>

The result of the transformation is:

CHARACTER_ID 10010 sent 2 messages, received 1
CHARACTER_ID 444444 sent 1 messages, received 3
CHARACTER_ID 50050 sent 1 messages, received 0

Number of characters having sent a message: 3
Number of characters having received a message: 2

Total sent: 4, Average sent by a sending character: 1.3333333333333332
Total received: 4, Average received by a receiving character: 2


Hope this helped.

Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev.
