one simple way:

<xsl:for-each select="some-expr">
  <xsl:if test="position() &lt;= 2">
    <!-- print/process the element here -->
  </xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>

Hi,

I've tried numerous connotations of for-each loops, recursive functions 
etc but for the life of me I can't seem to get something which will only 
print/process the first 'x' (in my case x is 2) elements and then bail 
out 
of the for-each or just simply ignore the remaining ones found.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Si
