However here's how you can do it with your current source(you still need to come up with some way name the select elements so you know which one applies to which question): <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method='html' encoding='iso-8859-1'/> <xsl:template match="/"> <!-- Process each question --> <xsl:apply-templates select='question'/> </xsl:template> <!-- Handle each question --> <xsl:template match='question'> <!--Create the list of options to be used for each answer --> <xsl:variable name='answers'> <xsl:for-each select='answer/@match'> <option value='{.}'><xsl:value-of select='.'/></option> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:variable> <!-- Create the select element for each answer --> <xsl:for-each select='answer'> <xsl:value-of select='para'/><br/> <select><xsl:copy-of select='$answers'/></select><br/><br/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Tom P XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
