hi, i have a tree of <chapter>s in my xml files, and i use this code to generate chapter numbers ( like chapter 1.5.3): <xsl:template name = "chapter-prefix"> <xsl:for-each select="ancestor-or-self::chapter"> <xsl:value-of select="count(preceding-sibling::chapter)+1" /> <xsl:text>.</xsl:text> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> and it works... but it generates for example. 1.5.4. and i want 1.5.4 , i don't need that last dot. i know i can do it like this: <xsl:template name = "chapter-prefix"> <xsl:variable name="temp"> <xsl:for-each select="ancestor-or-self::chapter"> <xsl:value-of select="count(preceding-sibling::chapter)+1" /> <xsl:text>.</xsl:text> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="substring($temp,0,string-length($temp))"/> </xsl:template> but isn't there any more elegant solution? bye, gabor XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
