Jarno,
Many thanks that was exactly want I wanted, here is my version:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:template match="root">
<TABLE border="1">
<TR>
<xsl:for-each select="box">
<TH>
<xsl:value-of select="@boxref"
/>
</TH>
</xsl:for-each>
</TR>
<xsl:for-each select="box">
<xsl:sort select="count(tin)"
data-type="number" order="descending"/>
<xsl:if test="position() = 1">
<xsl:for-each select="tin">
<xsl:variable name="position"
select="position()"/>
<TR>
<xsl:for-each
select="../../box">
<TD>
<xsl:variable name="tinno" select="tin[$position]/@tinid"/>
<xsl:variable name="cartno" select="tin[$position]/@cartonid"/>
<xsl:variable name="boxno" select="@boxid"/>
<xsl:variable name="car" select="'car'"/>
<xsl:variable name="tin" select="'tin'"/>
<xsl:variable name="comma" select="','"/>

<input type="image" name="removetin" value="remove" src="images/cross.ico"
alt="Remove" onClick="DeleteTin('{(_at_)boxno}','{$tinno}','{$tin}');return
false;"></input>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if
test="tin[$position]/@cartonid">
<xsl:value-of select="$cartno"/> 
<input type="image" name="removetin" value="remove" src="images/cross.ico"
alt="Remove" onClick="DeleteTin('{$boxno}','{$cartno}','{$car}');return
false;"></input>
</xsl:if>
</TD>
</xsl:for-each>
</TR>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</TABLE>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Despite scouring the web for days, I could not find many useful articles on
dynamic HTML creation, are there any sites that are particularly geared towards
this?
Once again many thanks,
Vince.

Hi,
You want something in the lines of
<xsl:template match="root">
<TABLE>
<TR>
<xsl:for-each select="box">
<TH>
<xsl:value-of select="@boxref" />
</TH>
</xsl:for-each>
</TR>
<xsl:for-each select="box">
<xsl:sort select="count(tin)" data-type="number" order="descending"/>
<xsl:if test="position() = 1">
<xsl:for-each select="tin">
<xsl:variable name="position" select="position()"/>
<TR>
<xsl:for-each select="../../box">
<TD>
<xsl:value-of select="tin[$position]/@tinid"/>
</TD>
</xsl:for-each>
</TR>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</TABLE>
</xsl:template>
I.e. first process the head, then get the max number of tin children in a box
so you know how many rows you need to create, and then loop through the box
elements using the tin that is of the "corresponding index".
