Hi 

How should the stylesheet know that the 'block.x' part of the string is
special and to be treated in this way? Is the '/' separator special?
Should all lines be joined in this manner or should it be governed by
line 3?

Let me explain clearly

Basically a block which will have events connected to each other  and that
block can connect to the another block which will have it's own set of
events connected.

<connection destination="block.1" source="block.0"/>
From this we understand that one block is followed by another block. 

But in the output I don't want to mention block.0 -> block.1 . 
Instead I need to have the event sequence in block.0 -> event sequence in
block.1

I think this will give a better idea about the problem.


Would you be able to change your input XML to look like this?

<connection block="block.0" destination="event.1" source="event.0"/>
<connection block="block.0" destination="event.2" source="event.1"/>
<connection block="block.1" destination="event.4" source="event.3"/>
<connection block="block.1" destination="event.5" source="event.4"/>
<connection destination="block.1" source="block.0"/>

If so, the problem becomes much easier, as you can use <xsl:for-each
group-by="@block">, then link the chains up as before...
