 Hello Animesh, That's an interesting problem, and even though I'm sure someone's solved it before, it's a good opportunity to learn a little myself, so I'll give it a try. Here's what I've come up with: <!-- START OF STYLESHEET --> <?xml version="1.0" ?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes" encoding="iso-8859-1"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <body> <xsl:apply-templates/> </body> </html> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="/html/body/table"> <table> <xsl:attribute name="border"> <xsl:value-of select="@border"/> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:for-each select="tr[position()=1]/td"> <xsl:variable name="counter" select="position()"/> <tr> <xsl:for-each select="ancestor::table/tr/td[position() = $counter]"> <td> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </td> </xsl:for-each> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </table> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="p"> <p> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </p> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> <!-- END OF STYLESHEET --> It's probably not the most elegant or economical solution, but it'll get the job done. A word of caution: I've converted your TR and TD elements to lowercase, and as XML is case-sensitive, you'll need to either change the case of these elements in the XML file to lower case or in the stylesheet to upper case.
