Re: incrementing the index value

Hello David,

Thanks for the solution. 
But in my XML. I get <Box> within another <Box> and we
may get somemore parent <Box> element. 

In that case, if i use following way
<xsl:apply-templates select="Box/Box/textbox"/>
It wont give me proper output.

So, I am looking for any Varaible assigning.
Please suggest me.

thanks in advance

regards,
Arul
