Select first two elements

2006-01-13 23:04:46
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>
        <link href="http://www.qualitycrashtests.com/blog.html"; rel="alternate" 
title="Quality Crash Tests" type="text/html"/>
