Hi Alden, for a first solution, you could try replacing the outer loop: <xsl:for-each select="//Fruit"> by: <xsl:for-each select="//Fruit[not(@ID = preceding-sibling::Fruit/@ID)]"> to process only the first occurrence of a Fruit's ID. A far better solution would be to use "Muenchian Grouping".

August 2003 17:44 An: 'xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' Cc: Penn, Alden Betreff: XSLT Question I am currently using an XSLT stylesheet to transform one type of XML into another. The first type looks like this: <FruitList> <Fruit ID="5" KEY="apple" VALUE="true"> <Fruit ID="5" KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Fruit ID="4" KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Fruit ID="5" KEY="banana" VALUE="false"> <Fruit ID="4" KEY="pineapple" VALUE="false"> <Fruit ID="13" KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Fruit ID="13" KEY="watermelon" VALUE="true"> <Fruit ID="4" KEY="kiwi" VALUE="false"> <Fruit ID="4" KEY="grapefruit" VALUE="true"> <Fruit ID="13" KEY="papaya" VALUE="false"> <Fruit ID="13" KEY="honeydew" VALUE="true"> </FruitList> I'd like to write a stylesheet to transform it as follows: <FruitList> <Fruit ID="5"> <Property KEY="apple" VALUE="true"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="banana" VALUE="false"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="4"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="pineapple" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="kiwi" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="grapefruit" VALUE="true"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="13"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="watermelon" VALUE="true"> <Property KEY="papaya" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="honeydew" VALUE="true"> </Fruit> </FruitList> So far, using a <xsl:for-each select="//Fruit"> with a nested <xsl:for-each select="//Fruit[@ID=$a]"> where $a = the current ID, I've been able to get the XML to look like the following: <FruitList> <Fruit ID="5"> <Property KEY="apple" VALUE="true"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="banana" VALUE="false"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="5"> <Property KEY="apple" VALUE="true"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="banana" VALUE="false"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="5"> <Property KEY="apple" VALUE="true"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="banana" VALUE="false"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="4"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="pineapple" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="kiwi" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="grapefruit" VALUE="true"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="4"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="pineapple" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="kiwi" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="grapefruit" VALUE="true"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="4"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="pineapple" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="kiwi" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="grapefruit" VALUE="true"> </Fruit> <Fruit ID="4"> <Property KEY="orange" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="pineapple" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="kiwi" VALUE="false"> <Property KEY="grapefruit" VALUE="true"> </Fruit> .. </FruitList> In other words, it prints out a seperate Fruit tag in the transformed XML for each of the Fruit tags in the original when I want it to only print out one fruit tag for each ID. How do I get the XSLT to "skip" rows I've already processed? I tried saving the processed ID in a variable and testing to see if the new ID is equal to the old ID, but because of scoping issues it won't work. Any ideas?
