I recently found this post while searching for how to do an two-column list
from one-column data with XSL:
The following would do the two column display you are after (however I have
checked it for typos etc.)
<xsl:template name="twocolumns">
<xsl:for-each select="people[position() mod 2 = 1]">
<tr>
<xsl:variable name="others" select="following-sibling::option[position()
< 2]" />
<xsl:for-each select=".|$others">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="person' />
</td>
<xsl:if test="not($others)">
<td></td>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:if>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
<!-- end of sorting the currencies into two columns -->
</xsl:template>
It worked for me, but I need some help understanding what these items are
actually doing:
1- <xsl:variable name="others" select="following-sibling::option[position()
< 2]" />
2- <xsl:for-each select=".|$others">
3- <xsl:if test="not($others)">
Thanks,
Josh
