I think this'll work, I've done something similar:
<xsl:template match="category">
        <xsl:variable name="iteration">
                <xsl:number />
        </xsl:variable>
        <xsl:value-of select="iteration" />
</xsl:template>
number will be incremented every time that template executed (at least it works 
with MSXML 4).

Subject: [xsl] xsl:variable
hello
i would like to declare a variable counter in my xsl file and to
incremente it whenever i have the occurence toto in my XML file.
toto is a complextype whose maxOccurs="unbounded" in the schema
declaration.
For instance we can have in the xml file :
<test>
    <toto>
      <titi/>
      <tata/>
    </toto>
    <toto>
     <titi>hello</titi>
      <tata>bye</tata>
    </toto>
</test>
i would like to write something like this :
<xsl:variable name="counter" select="0"/>
<xsl:for-each select="toto">
    <xsl:variable name="counter" select="$counter+1"/>
</xsl:for-each>
i know that i'm wrong but how could i do that?
Many thanks for your help!!
Lo.
