 Hi Andrew,
Your XML was not well formed. So I changed it to this for testing
<devices>
<device>
<deviceID>1</deviceID>
<desc>Description1</desc>
<chan1>0</chan1>
<chan2>0</chan2>
<chan3>2</chan3>
<chan4>2</chan4>
<chan5>2</chan5>
<chan6>2</chan6>
<chan7>4</chan7>
<chan8>0</chan8>
<chan9>2</chan9>
</device>
<device>
<deviceID>2</deviceID>
<desc>Description2</desc>
<chan1>2</chan1>
<chan2>2</chan2>
<chan3>2</chan3>
<chan4>4</chan4>
<chan5>2</chan5>
<chan6>2</chan6>
<chan7>2</chan7>
<chan8>2</chan8>
<chan9>4</chan9>
</device>
</devices>
I think you cannot solve this problem with pure XSLT 1.0. You need to
use node-set extension function. And a grouping technique like
Muenchian method as used in this stylesheet.
Below is the solution to this problem
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:common="http://exslt.org/common"
exclude-result-prefixes="common"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" />
<xsl:key name="by-chan" match="*[starts-with(name(),'chan')]" use="." />
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title/>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<th>
<td>Device ID</td><td>Description</td>
<xsl:for-each
select="//*[starts-with(name(),'chan')][generate-id() =
generate-id(key('by-chan',.)[1])]">
<td>Channels=<xsl:value-of select="." /></td>
</xsl:for-each>
</th>
<xsl:variable name="rtf1">
<xsl:for-each
select="//*[starts-with(name(),'chan')][generate-id() =
generate-id(key('by-chan',.)[1])]">
<x><xsl:value-of select="." /></x>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:apply-templates select="devices">
<xsl:with-param name="rtf1" select="$rtf1" />
</xsl:apply-templates>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="devices">
<xsl:param name="rtf1" />
<xsl:for-each select="device">
<xsl:variable name="rtf2">
<xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:variable>
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="deviceID" /></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="desc" /></td>
<xsl:for-each select="common:node-set($rtf1)/x[not(. =
common:node-set($rtf2)/*/*)]">
<td><xsl:value-of select="." /></td>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:for-each
select="common:node-set($rtf2)/*/*[starts-with(name(),'chan')][generate-id()
= generate-id(key('by-chan',.)[1])]">
<td><xsl:value-of select="count(key('by-chan',.))" /></td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I am producing HTML, which you can change as required.
