****************************************************
I am trying to implement multilple
transformation/node-set(). Because after first
transformation, I get complex fo:block 's. So I doubt
this technique will help in my case.
Thanks & Regards,
Raj
PS: Thanks to Mukul(you got my problem.)Details are
given above.

Your problem description isn't very clear, but at
first sight it looks
as if the problem could easily be solved by doing
the numbering in a
second pass, i.e. by creating a result tree and then
using it as input
to a second transformation by using xx:node-set().

Subject: [xsl] Incrementing a Global variable
This drawback of XSL/XSL:FO is quite frustating
I want something like this
--------------------------------------
|Sl No | STUDENT NAME | TOption |
--------------------------------------
| 1 | SAM | English | <-
position()=1
--------------------------------------
| 2 | RAJ | English | <-
position()=2
--------------------------------------
| 3 | RON | English | <-
position()=3
--------------------------------------
| 4 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 5 | JON | German | <-
position()=4
--------------------------------------
| 6 | DON | German | <-
position()=5
--------------------------------------
| 7 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 8 | MON | Hebrew | <-
position()=6
--------------------------------------
| 9 | GON | Hebrew | <-
position()=7
--------------------------------------
| 10 | TOTAL= 7 | |
--------------------------------------
| 11 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 12 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 13 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 14 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 15 | | |
--------------------------------------
Pl. Note
1. the rows with out values
2. position() is not same as Sl No.
3. blank rows continues till end of page
4. after first break diff between position() and
Sl
No. is 1 (then after second break 2 ....)
5. this is only a very tiny part of xml/output
used to
just illustrate the problem, So I cannot use
static
sl. no. (it is in a <xsl:for-each select="Student"
..loop)
I have however created above table (breaks by
grouping
and extra blank-rows by recursion)
but could not get Sl. No. ordered
I can get something like
--------------------------------------
|Sl No | STUDENT NAME | TOption |
--------------------------------------
| 1 | SAM | English | <-
position()=1
--------------------------------------
| 2 | RAJ | English | <-
position()=2
--------------------------------------
| 3 | RON | English | <-
position()=3
--------------------------------------
| | | |
--------------------------------------
| 4 | JON | German | <-
position()=4
--------------------------------------
| 5 | DON | German | <-
position()=5
--------------------------------------
| | | |
--------------------------------------
| 6 | MON | Hebrew |<-
position()=6
--------------------------------------
| 7 | GON | Hebrew |<-
position()=7
--------------------------------------
| 10 | TOTAL= 7 | |
--------------------------------------
| 11 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 12 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 13 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 14 | | |
--------------------------------------
| 15 | | |
--------------------------------------
I got last sl no.(10-15) ordered by using
1. break-count(here 2)
2. Student nodes count(here 7)
3. total no. of rows (here 15)(fixed)
Actual Problem is to print Sl No.(Here 1 to 9)
Only solution I suppose, is adding 1,2... after
1st,2nd... breaks but for that I require a global
variable which I can increment and add after every
break.........BUT....in XSL variables are read
only!!!!!!!
can anybody show me a way?
(Pl. Also Note Final out put is in PDF.Can it be
achieved with FO .....with backgroud image or
Absolute Positioning...
for this problem I also tried ft:assign but failed
to
use it
Has any body used ft:assign? )
tia

Raj
