RE: XSLT - How to find the last element in a group of

Hi,

  Referring to your question, have you tried using <xsl:value-of
select="@zone[last()]">?

   I have to point out that if you have no actual value, what you are doing
here is merely extracting the result from what is displayed in the attribute.
Is that what you want?

  As for your code, I am not sure what you want to select in the
<xsl:for-each>
  if there is is no attribute that say competitorTerritory in your input.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

I am writing a table using XSLT 1.0. The sort key to the table is the
"Zone". A table can have multiple zones. There are also a couple of
columns as show below. The requirement is to first sort the table by
Zone and then by Territory. The value in the Number row will appear for
only the last row for any give zone.

So a table will look something like:

Zone    Territory       Number
1       1
1       2
1       3               25
2       1               12
3       1               7
4       1
4       2               50

I am using the Meunichian method to group all rows by Zone and then on
the inner for-each for the meunichian code, I am sorting by Territory.
So far so good.

My question is, how do I detect the last row for each zone?

Input XML:

<root>
        <row>
                <zone code='1' territory='1' number='25'>
                <zone code='1' territory='2' number='25'>
                <zone code='1' territory='3' number='25'>
                <zone code='2' territory='1' number='12'>
                <zone code='3' territory='1' number='7'>
                <zone code='4' territory='1' number='50'>
                <zone code='4' territory='2' number='50'>
        </row>
</root>


<xsl:for-each select="//competitor[generate-id() =
generate-id(key('someKey', @zone))]">

        <xsl:sort select="@zone"/>
        <xsl:for-each select="key('someKey', @zone)">

                <xsl:sort select="@competitorTerritory"/>
                        //Some code

                        //How do I detect the last row for each Zone?
        </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>

Would appreciate your help. If I left some information out, please let
me know.

Thanks,
HC.
