Problem: I need to make a table of the output required of 4 factories next month. Widgets Gadgets Factory A 2 Factory B 3 Factory C 4 Factory D 1 Widget quota = 5 Gadget quota = 5 --- My current xsl looks something like. <xsl:for-each select="document('factories.xml')//factory"> <xsl:variable name="widgets"> Has quota been reached? Then return 0. Otherwise, give as many possible without going over the quota. </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="gadgets"> Has the widget quota been filled? Then start making gadgets! Has this quota been reached? (etc). </xsl:variable> <tr> <td><xsl:value-of select="@name" /></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="$widgets" /></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="$gadgets" /></td> </tr> </xsl:for-each> **Lines which I can't describe in XSL have been translated to English 3.1b ---------- When the quota of Widgets has been reached, I need the factories to start making Gadgets. In the above example the quota is reached at factory B and factory C begins making Gadgets. Howto? -Steve PS: For now I am using a for-each (factory) to iterate through the totals and generate numbers. It seems that templates are beneficial for things such as this, but I have not yet mastered their use and so if this can be more easily done with templates, I'd like to know how.
