Hi
Here is a problem I'm playing around with:
I have two variables containing two sets of nodes.
$A contains 5 elements A,B,C,D,E of element type Service
$B contains a subset of A$ e.g 2 elements B and D
I am using them to create a table which looks like this
A B C D E (Table header, which comes from $A)
B D (First table row, which comes from $B)
$B is reset though a for-each loop, which then loops to fill the table:
A B C D E
B D
A C D
E
and so on.
The for each which runs through the table, builds the table by running
though each element in $A and checking to see if it exists in $B. If so, the
value written.
I need to determine the positional value of the element being written, as it
occurs in the in the variable $B
If I just use the postion function, I get the position value from the
superset variable $A
so I get output like this:
A B C D E
2 4
1 3 4
5
The ouput I am looking for should rather list the position as it occurs in
the subset variable $B:
A B C D E
1 2
1 2 3
1
Any ideas how I can find out what the position of the current node is in a
foreign node set? (As opposed to the position in the current node set)
Thanks.
