Hip hei!
Let's say I hae the following XML
<fields>
<field>
<name>Field 1</name>
<value>Value 1</value>
</field>
<field>
<name>Field 2</name>
<value>Value 2</value>
</field>
<field>
<name>Field 3</name>
<value>Value 3</value>
</field>
<field>
<name>Field 4</name>
<value>Value 4</value>
</field>
</fields>
and I want the html table output (using XSL transfomration) to be :
<table>
<tr>
<td>Field 1</td>
<td>Value 1</td>
<td>Field 2</td>
<td>Value 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Field 3</td>
<td>Value 3</td>
<td>Field 4</td>
<td>Value 4</td>
</tr>
</table>
My problem is creating the mechnism that puts 2 (istead of 1 which is
simple and easy) "fields" in one row (tr element)
It's a grouping problem, and there's most probably an entry for it in the FAQ.
Anyhow,
<xsl:template match="fields">
<table>
<xsl:for-each select="field[position() mod 2 = 1]">
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="./* | following-sibling::field[1]/* ">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</xsl:template>
should do the trick.
