Hi All,

I'm just coming back to XSLT after a long lay off doing other things and am
struggling with grouping irregular xml content from a converter.

I have this as an input.

<body>
	<aaa>
		..
	</aaa>
	<aaa>
		..
	</aaa>
	<bbb>
		..
	</bbb>
	<aaa>
		..
	</aaa>
	<aaa>
		..
	</aaa>
</body>

And I need to put the groups of <aaa> elements in a deeper structure

<body>
	<ol>
		<aaa>
			..
		</aaa>
		<aaa>
			..
		</aaa>
	</ol>
	<bbb>
		..
	</bbb>
	<ol>
		<aaa>
			..
		</aaa>
		<aaa>
			..
		</aaa>
	</ol>
</body>

Should I be using xsl:key here or another method?

Thanks

Paul Clarke
