So where did "standard" elements disappear?
Also, what is the rule for producing the numbers? I don't see in the output
any subsections, while your source.xml is nested and probably will result in
sections having subsections.
To put it shortly, this output bears no resemblance to the source.xml
Could you, please, provide a short but complete example, that shows how
exactly your source.xml will have to be transformed?

I would like the results to look something like this. It is sort of like a
book,section,chapter senario.
<h>title of book</h>
<h>Section 1</h>
<a>chapter 1</a>
<h>chapter 2</h>
<a>subchapter 1</a>
<h>Section 2</h>
<a>chapter 1</a>
<a>chapter 2</a>
<h>Section 3</h>
<h>Section 4</h>
<a>chapter 1</a>
the problem is that I will never know how deep/levels the standard can be.
tia,
jason

i have an xml document that needs to be transformed which seems to
perfect
for recursion. (this is my first attempt at trying this) it is essentialy
a
nested menu system of links. the basic logic is it checks to see if a node
has a child, if it does print a header otherwise a link. i built the
xml
document using recursion, i just can't figure out how to transform it
useing
the same technique. samples of both xml and xslt
xml doc:
<?xml ?>
<standards>
<standard id="1" name="test">
<standard id ="32" name="test" />
<standard id ="45" name="test>
<standard id ="23" name="test" />
<standard id ="12" name="test" />
</standard>
</standard>
</standards>
xslt:
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:template name="buildmenu">
<xsl:param name="foo" />
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="position()!=last()">
<xsl:choose>
<!-- test to see if foo has children
if so print header -->
<xsl:when test="count($foo) != 0">
has child print header
<h2><xsl:value-of select="@name" /></h2>
<xsl:call-template name="buildmenu">
<xsl:with-param name="foo" select="$foo" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<!-- no children print link -->
<a><xsl:attribute
name="href">addlinkinfol8r</xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of
select="@name" /></a>
<xsl:call-template name="buildmenu">
<xsl:with-param name="foo" select="$foo" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<a><xsl:attribute
name="href">addlinkinfol8r</xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of
select="@name" /></a>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="standards">
<xsl:call-template name="buildmenu">
<xsl:with-param name="foo" select="standard" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>
<!--<xsl:template match="standards">
<xsl:for-each select="standard">
<a><xsl:attribute
name="href">addlinkinfol8r</xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of
select="@name" /></a>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template> -->
</xsl:transform>
