Re: xsl:for or xsl:repeat

Thanks guys.

I would have thought there'd be some really noddy way to do this.
Sometimes xsl is so damned frustrating and so incomprehensible to your
bog standard programmer. Ah well.

I've decided that as there is only ever a max possible no of clients of
4, I'll just do it by if statements.

I'm guessing from your message your'e using XSLT 1 since you're not
trying the XSLT 2.0 way.  I'd encourage you (unless some performance
reasons indicate otherwise) to take a look at my sample again.  It's a
little convoluted, but it's really isn't that bad.  You just
essentially are doing the recursive function:

n won't ever reach 0.  You could move the if block around and do it so
there's a base case, I was just a bit lazy.

I just get bad feelings about systems that are arbitrarly restricted.
Seems so....limiting ;).  Like web forms that don't let me get my full
title in because the assume everyone's title can fit in 10 characters
or something.  One of the perks of a document system like this is that
we can move away from arbitrary restrictions.  But sometimes it's
necessary.
