I am getting the feeling that this is not possible but I would like someone to confirm for me I am trying to write a generic template to create a table with the first column spanned over all rows in HTML. The code below works apart from the condition is ignored. From reading around, I am getting the impression that I cannot do this. Any help much appreciated ---------------------------------------------------------------- <!-- data_tag is the name of the XML node to be included in the table data_condition is the string that should form the condition to subset the data --> <xsl:template name="table_spanned"> <xsl:param name="first_col_width"/> <xsl:param name="first_col_text"/> <xsl:param name="data_tag"/> <xsl:param name="data_condition"/> <table> <!-- Count rows --> <xsl:variable name="numrow" select="count(child::*[name()=$data_tag][$data_condition])"/> <!-- Store first element value --> <xsl:variable name="FirstAnswer" select="(child::*[name()=$data_tag][$data_condition])[1]/@ANSWERNAME"/> <tr> <!-- First table element with correct rowspan value --> <xsl:element name="td"> <xsl:attribute name="width"><xsl:value-of select="$first_col_width"/></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="rowspan"><xsl:value-of select="$numrow"/></xsl:attribute> <xsl:value-of select="$first_col_text"/> </xsl:element> <td> <!-- First element --> <xsl:value-of select="$FirstAnswer"/> </td> </tr> <!-- All elements that are not the first element --> <xsl:for-each select="(child::*[name()=$data_tag][$data_condition])[@ANSWERNAME != $FirstAnswer]"> <tr> <td> <xsl:value-of select="@ANSWERNAME"/> </td> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </table> </xsl:template> XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
