Re: Splitting data into smaller groups for HTML output.

Thanks Michael, this code looks good.

5/5/5/5/1 is indeed how I would like things to end up if there were 21 items.

Now, then... how would I incorporate this into my stylesheet and what
should I put in this piece of code:

<xsl:variable name="all-items" select="..."/>

Sorry for sounding a bit stupid on this one! It's all still pretty new
to me, but I'm egar to learn!

Cheers,
Mike.

This still isn't quite a complete spec: if there are 21 items, are your 5
groups of size 5/4/4/4/4, or of size 5/5/5/5/1?
