[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Trouble With Multiple File Outputs Based on Letter
 Sorry if you're seeing this twice, first attempt seems to have vanished.
I have a large XML Doc with a tree something like this:
<ead>
<archdesc>
<dsc>
<co1>
<did>
<unittile>
<title>
<c02>
<did>
<unittitle>
<title>
I am trying to break this rather large doc up into multiple files based on letters of the alphabet. Each new file (a.html, b.html, c.html, etc...) will have the contents of the <title></title> if that <title> starts with the same letter that the file has as it's name. e.g. a.html has the <title>A Stitch in Time</title>
The style sheet below will happily create the files for each letter, but only puts the first A <title> it comes to into each one of the files. So it's just finding a title that begins with the letter A and it then just stops, rather than putting ALL the title's that start with A into a.html, and then all the B's into b.html and so on.
I'm totally stuck, not sure what I am doing wrong, or how to proceed.
Currently I am running it through XT, but that's not a necessity, so I can switch processors.
Thanks!
