It does apply. -- Charles Knell cknell@xxxxxxxxxx - email -----Original Message----- From: stuart arnold <stuart.arnold@xxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Fri, 15 Apr 2005 16:53:50 -0400 To: <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: grouping by the first char This is very fundamental but i'm not having much luck in finding out the answer. I need to be able to sort, then group based on the 1st character of the element. example: <things> <thing>bbb<thing> <thing>aaa<thing> <thing>abc<thing> <thing>aab<thing> <thing>bad<thing> <thing>baa<thing> <thing>cca<thing> <thing>zzz<thing> </things> and produce some html so that a <br> occurs when the 1st char changes. It should "start" with the default being "a" for grouping, and then detect that the 1st char change and insert the <br> I've seen the Muenchian grouping, but I don't know if that exactly applies to this. Its just a simple one-pass to produce the doc. thanks -stuart
