Subject: Re: [xsl] Sorting in order to count unique Records. From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2006 21:39:04 +0100 |

This is usually done using a grouping idiom (see jeni's pages for xslt1 or for-each-group in xslt2) > I'm wondering if I can use xsl:sort to get the names in order, then > have the template check to see if the following-sibling matches. xsl:sort changes the order in which teh results of processing nodes are added to the result tree, it doesn't change the input tree, so it does not change the preceding-sibling axis of the nodes. > Would xsl:sort only sort the first record (doing nothing)? yes. <xsl:for-each select="Record[1]"> <xsl:apply-templates select="." /> </xsl:for-each> That is equivalent to <xsl:apply-templates select="Record[1]"/> David
