David,
This is where you code is broken: At 05:14 PM 11/11/2003, you wrote: <xsl:if test="position() mod 2 = '0'"> </topgroup> <topgroup> </xsl:if> This is not well-formed XML. The parser is seeing the </topgroup> end tag here; its error message is complaining that it's the wrong end tag. The only end tag allowed where you have "</topgroup>" is </xsl:if>. So, you ask, what do I do if I can't "close" an element and "open" another one? Hint: XSLT is not a set of string-writing routines, and it doesn't work by writing tags to the output. Instead, it builds trees. Instead of <xsl:template match="/"> you want something like <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each select="//WorkOrder/lineService[position() mod 2 = 1]"> <topgroup> <xsl:for-each select=".|following-sibling::lineService[1]"> <TEABTN> <NPA><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(tpExistAcctBillTelNo/npa)"/></NPA> <NXX><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(tpExistAcctBillTelNo/nxx)"/></NXX> <XXXX><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(tpExistAcctBillTelNo/xxxx)"/></XXXX> </TEABTN> </topgroup> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> The difference between this and what you had is that it specifies a set of *nodes* to be added to the result *tree* -- not just write a bunch of tags (which hopefully will parse). Not incidentally, the stylesheet template itself is well-formed XML, and will parse. It's completely different from, say, the way Javascript writes HTML tagging to browser windows.
