Hi,

the solution to my problem would be easy if I could change the
source-tree (mainly adding attributes to child-items) but I already
read that this is more or less impossible due to the fact that it
might cause infinite-loops. Or am I wrong here?

I have the following problem:
<foo>
     <example_bar>
     ...
     </example_bar>
</foo>

foo triggers a template which splits a string into one or more pieces.
example_bar is the element which describes on how to output one of
them. Though I only know at runtime how many pieces there are.

My first thought was to make the foo template add as many example_bar
elements as the foo template produced pieces. Then I'd add an
attribute to each one of them and supply it with the piece of text. As
each one of the example_bar elements is processed it could take the
text from the attribute and put it into the result tree in which ever
way needed.

How could this be accomplished?
Thanks in advance
Manuel Baehnisch
