Ok sort of get it but not really. Here's what I've got so far for my xsl:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="ri-types" match="RI" use="@col" />
<xsl:variable name="ri-types" select="/RS/RI[generate-id() =
generate-id(key('ri-types', @col)[1])]/@col" />
<xsl:template match="/RS">
<table>
<xsl:variable name="content" select="RI"/>
<xsl:for-each select="RI [(_at_)col='1']">
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="$ri-types">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="$content[(_at_)col=current()]"/>
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Which almost works, but I obviously am missing something either about the
variable ri-types or with variable content:
<table>
<tr>
<td>Row 1 - Column 1</td>
<td>Row 1 - Column 2</td>
<td>Row 1 - Column 3</td>
<td>Row 1 - Column 4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Row 1 - Column 1</td>
<td>Row 1 - Column 2</td>
<td>Row 1 - Column 3</td>
<td>Row 1 - Column 4</td>
</tr>
</table>
But of course row #2 should be giving me "Row 2 - Column 1" etc.

Yeah, I was going to ask another on an unrelated topic but I thought I'd
look a little further before coming here. Thanks for the link. I'll have a
look

Dan,
This is a classic beginner's question about grouping.
It's not actually on the RS element where you'll create your <tr> -- it's
on every RI[(_at_)col='1'] (which may be every fourth RI, depending on your
data).
See http://www.jenitennison.com/xslt/index.html for all kinds of help.
(But you said you have two questions.)
Cheers,
Wendell

2 questions.
I have the following xml structure:
<RS>
<RI col="1">Row 1 - Column 1</RI>
<RI col="2">Row 1 - Column 2</RI>
<RI col="3">Row 1 - Column 3</RI>
<RI col="4">Row 1 - Column 4</RI>
<RI col="1">Row 2 - Column 1</RI>
<RI col="2">Row 2 - Column 2</RI>
<RI col="3">Row 2 - Column 3</RI>
<RI col="4">Row 2 - Column 4</RI>
</RS>
