 Linear counting problem in nested loop.
Hi,
I have the following XML and want to implement such that I can have a linear
counter increment with each iteration of the parent for-each loop and also
the nested for-each loop. 
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<MENU>
    <MenuItems>
        <MenuLabel>Menu 1</MenuLabel>
        <SubMenuItems>
            <SubMenuLabel>Sub Menu 1</SubMenuLabel>
        </SubMenuItems>
        <SubMenuItems>
            <SubMenuLabel>Sub Menu 11</SubMenuLabel>
        </SubMenuItems>
    </MenuItems>
    <MenuItems>
        <MenuLabel>Menu 2</MenuLabel>
        <SubMenuItems>
            <SubMenuLabel>Sub Menu 2</SubMenuLabel>
        </SubMenuItems>
    </MenuItems>
</MENU>
e.g. The counter should return as: 
1 for Menu 1
2 for SubMenu 1
3 for SubMenu 11
4 for Menu 2
5 for SubMenu 2
So far, what I got is the counter breaks when it reaches the second
<MenuItems>, as it doesn't know about the subMenu from the first MenuItems
counted 3 already... So the output of my code is something like this:
1 for Menu 1
2 for SubMenu 1
3 for SubMenu 11
2 for Menu 2
3 for SubMenu 2
Any help in fixing this will be much appreciated. Thanks a lot!
