Re: Looping a node in XSLT

This is because "for $n in (1 to 10) return ." is an XPath 2.0
expression and can only be used in XSLT 2.0 stylesheets, whereas
you're probably using a XSLT 1.0 processor.

I am not using Saxon 8.8 and use java parser to do the same.
for loop syntax is nt working in there,
