RE: Select first two elements

You've probably forgotten that the element names are in a namespace, but
since you haven't shown us your failing code, we can only guess what you've
done wrong.

Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] [xsl] Select first two elements

It's been a while since I have done any XSL (maybe 2 1/2 
years!) I have a 
friend that wants his last 2 posts from an atom xml feed to 
show. I'm *trying* 
to get any for loop that I can find in xsl to work, but 
nothing is at all.

Basic structure is like so:
<feed>
     <entry>
           <title></title>
           <content></content>
     </entry>
     ...
     ...
</feed>

I just need to be able to select the first two in the xml 
doc. Once I can get 
this, you won't hear a peep from me in another two years!

example:
==================================
<feed xmlns="http://purl.org/atom/ns#"; version="0.3" xml:lang="en-US">
      <link href="https://www.blogger.com/atom/6526525"; 
rel="service.post" 
title="Quality Crash Tests" type="application/atom+xml"/>
      <link href="https://www.blogger.com/atom/6526525"; 
rel="service.feed" 
title="Quality Crash Tests" type="application/atom+xml"/>
      <title mode="escaped" type="text/html">Quality Crash 
Tests</title>
      <tagline mode="escaped" type="text/html">You make me 
dizzy, running 
circles in my head. One of these days I'll chase you down. </tagline>
