Subject: [xsl] N input nodes to specific number of ouput nodes


Hi all.

I need to loop through some nodes and output exactly 10 
output nodes, no matter how many input nodes there are.  If 
too few input nodes the ouput will just show "N/A" and if too 
many input nodes they will just be ignored.

I can do the 'too many' with a for-each and a choose based on 
position() but don't get how the 'too few' scenario is handled.

Please help.  Thanks!
