 I am creating a text output from xml and at some places i have to give hardcoded special characters. This not a very explicit description of a problem that needs to be solved using incrementing variables. Is is possible to declare a variable having numerical value and incrementing it using expression inside for loop ? No ... this is a FFFFAQ ... even a simple query will tell you the answer to this question: http://www.google.com/search?as_q=increment+global+variable+xslt Gee, it even happens to be my answer that is at the top of the list tonight. If somebody can throw some light on this issue i would be grateful. Variables in XSLT do not vary within their scope. Now your question has been answered, but you only asked a yes/no question and you haven't given enough detail for anyone to help you with your real problem. If you take a moment to describe the nature of the problem you are trying to solve where you think you need a varying variable, people on the list will be able to tell you about the position() function or the <xsl:number/> instruction, or about tree walking with recursive template calls, or any of a number of other XSLT facilities that may be able to help you solve your problem. And please take your time to try and do *some* research before asking people to take from their time to answer your questions that have already been answered. I hope this helps. ............... Ken
