Well, as a non-expert I took a stab at it, and I hope the experts will provide solutions as well. I had to make a few assumptions in my attempted solution (e.g., assuming data sorted by column and row in order to get the "unique rows" for a given pivot, and assuming the first pivot provides a master template w/re to the number of rows), and I figure there will be a better way -- but I'm out of time. :) I tend to try and answer problems which are going to prove a challenge, ones where the solution isn't obvious to me. I also tend to answer simple questions in areas where I know I had trouble when I was first learning XSLT. I really wish browsers would just get on with supporting XSLT 2.0, I don't ever want to have to deal with XSLT 1.0 in *my* shop!
