RE: [xsl] Add numbers

Quick comment, Harsh himself pointed this out recently.

In your Muenchian grouping condition:
        generate-id() = generate-id(key('x', @key)[1])
The [1] is actually redundant, as generate-id() will only take the first
node returned. So you can use this:
        generate-id() = generate-id(key('x', @key))

Hi Harsh,
  Though the question has already been answered, but here's my attempt:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">

 <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />

 <xsl:key name="x" match="a" use="@key" />

 <xsl:template match="/first">
   <op>
     <xsl:for-each select="second/a[generate-id() =
generate-id(key('x', @key)[1])]">
       <xsl:element name="{(_at_)key}">
         <val><xsl:value-of select="sum(key('x', @key)/@val)" /></val>
       </xsl:element>
     </xsl:for-each>
   </op>
 </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Ken's solution is quite generic, because it doesn't depend on element
name, and can work with deep hierarchies.

Hi,

I have an XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<first>
   <second>
       <a val="4" key="one">b</a>
       <a val="2" key="two">b</a>
   </second>
   <second>
       <a val="3" key="one">c</a>
   </second>
</first>

I need to group together the nodes which have the same key and then I
need to add the attribute "val" in all such cases.

So, The output I need is:

<op>
       <one>
               <val>7</val>
       </one>
       <two>
               <val>2</val>
       </two>
</op>

How do I go about doing this? I am using Xalan and XSLT 1.0.

I have used the Meunichian method to group the nodes with same keys
together. But I don't know how to proceed from there. I tried using
the
sum() function but it won't work for me on account that even if I run
a
for-each loop over the set of nodes with the same key, it just prints
out the value of "val" for each a element. I think I need to be in the
parent element for this to work.

Thanks,
Harsh.
