Mike,
Thanks for your solution. Unfortunately I cannot
implement it because I need to output the elements in
the table in a particular order (not sorted as in your
solution). So that makes it a bit trickier. I think I
may have to settle for a lookup table. But I am not
familiar with using lookup tables...so I gotta go
learn or ask for help again here.
You used the following in your solution:
<xsl:for-each
select="table/col[count(.|key('union', @month)[1]) =
1]">
Can you elaborate on how this works. I gather it
selects a unique occurence of the month attribute from
all the elements. How do you do this if month was
element instead of attribute? Just by omitting the
'@'?
Also, how does 'generate-id' work? Is it a built-in
xsl function?
I know these may be trivial questions but I am still
on the learning curve with respect to xsl.

Alright, I think this could be better if I made
better use of the key (but
I've never really used keys).
There are some conditions that are unhandled, such
as when a month has more
than one entry for that table.
But, I think this accomplishes the stated goal of
the original post.
