Hi,
How can I pass comments from one xslt to another that is generated by the
first?

first XSLT
....
<xsl:element name="<!--">
<xsl:text> any text comment </xsl:text>
</xsl:element>
....
second XSLT
...
<!-- any text comment -->
....

Hi
I have an xml file which looks pretty much like this:
<snip/>
Each group node should contain three item nodes.
How should I do this with XSLT?
use the position function...
I set the root node to result
<xsl:template match="/">
<result>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//item" mode="test"/>
</result>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="item" mode="test">
<xsl:if test="position() mod 3 = 1">
<group id="{ceiling(position() div 3)}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="."/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::item[1]"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::item[2]"/>
</group>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="item">
<xsl:copy><xsl:apply-templates select="*|@*|text()"/></xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -IN items.xml -XSL items.xsl
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<result>
<group id="1">
<item>1</item>
<item>2</item>
<item>3</item>
</group>
<group id="2">
<item>4</item>
<item>5</item>
<item>6</item>
</group>
<group id="3">
<item>7</item>
<item>8</item>
<item>9</item>
</group>
</result>
