Roger,
Yes, this is definitely progress.

I stripped the XSL down so I can concentrate on the problem. So now I
have....
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:key name="cards" match="ITEM" use="CARD/@number" />

SELECTING UNIQUE USING A FOR-EACH
<xsl:for-each select="./ITEM[CARD/@number and
generate-id(.) = generate-id(key('cards', CARD/@number))]" >
<BR/>
CARD: <xsl:value-of select="./CARD/@number"/>
NUMBER: <xsl:value-of select="count(key('cards', ./CARD/@number))" />
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This is cool, but I think you don't want the count() function (which counts
a set of nodes) but rather the sum() function (which sums the numeric
values of a set of nodes).
Would that do it?
Cheers,
Wendell
