Re: [xsl] "grouping" footnote numbers

By calling key() from the context of the xref, you're only getting
back the xrefs with the same @href, so you'll only ever have one group
and position() will only ever return 1.

It may not be terribly efficient, but you could add this to the
<xsl:number> in the XSLT code you posted:

count="xref[not(@href = preceding::xref/@href)]"

Or, replace the <xsl:number> completely with:

<xsl:value-of select="count(distinct-values(preceding::xref/@href)) + 1"/>

Determining which one works better is left as an exercise for the OP. :)

change that to xsl:value-of select="position()"  having grouped them all
you just want to know which group you ar in and position(0 tells you that

Thank you very much for looking into this. Alas, this XSL:

<xsl:key name="fn" match="xref" use="@href"/>
...
<sup>
 <xsl:for-each-group select="key('fn', @href)" group-by="@href">
   <xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
 </xsl:for-each-group>
</sup>

Just results in every reference being numbered as 1. I'm not sure why - 
either because the grouping is based on a key or because this appears in the 
"xref" template?

To move this forward, here is some actual XML for you:

Input
=====
   <p><b>Caesarean section</b></p>
   <p>Single dose<xref href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022" type="fn"/> of 
i/v cefuroxime</p>
   <p>Administer immediately after umbilical cord is clamped. Add i/v 
teicoplanin<xref href="footnote-202621.dita#bnf_202621" type="fn"/></p>
   <p><b>Hysterectomy</b><xref href="footnote-204127.dita#bnf_204127" 
type="fn"/></p>
   <p>Single dose<xref href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022" type="fn"/> of 
i/v cefuroxime + i/v
       metronidazole<xref href="footnote-113019.dita#bnf_113019" type="fn"/>
     <i>or</i> i/v gentamicin + i/v metronidazole<xref 
href="footnote-113019.dita#bnf_113019" type="fn"/>
     <i>or</i> i/v co-amoxiclav alone</p>
   <p>Use single dose<xref href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022" type="fn"/> 
of
       i/v gentamicin + i/v metronidazole<xref 
href="footnote-113019.dita#bnf_113019" type="fn"/> or
       add i/v teicoplanin<xref href="footnote-202621.dita#bnf_202621" 
type="fn"/></p>
   <p><b>Termination of pregnancy</b></p>
   <p>Single dose<xref href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022" type="fn"/> of 
oral metronidazole</p>

XSL:
====

 <xsl:key name="fn" match="xref[@type='fn']" use="@href"/>

 <xsl:template match="p">
   <xsl:element name="{local-name()}"><xsl:apply-templates/></xsl:element>
 </xsl:template>

 <xsl:template match="xref">
   <a href="{@href}">
     <sup>
       <xsl:for-each-group select="key('fn', @href)" group-by="@href">
         <xsl:number level="any"/>
       </xsl:for-each-group>
     </sup>
   </a>
 </xsl:template>

(Incorrect) Output:
===================

 <p>Caesarean section</p>
 <p>Single dose<a href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022"><sup>1</sup></a> of 
i/v cefuroxime</p>
 <p>Administer immediately after umbilical cord is clamped. Add i/v 
teicoplanin<a href="footnote-202621.dita#bnf_202621"><sup>2</sup></a></p>
 <p>Hysterectomy<a href="footnote-204127.dita#bnf_204127"><sup>3</sup></a></p>
 <p>Single dose<a href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022"><sup>1</sup></a> of 
i/v cefuroxime + i/v
   metronidazole<a href="footnote-113019.dita#bnf_113019"><sup>5</sup></a>
   or i/v gentamicin + i/v metronidazole<a 
href="footnote-113019.dita#bnf_113019"><sup>5</sup></a>
   or i/v co-amoxiclav alone</p>
 <p>Use single dose<a href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022"><sup>1</sup></a> 
of
   i/v gentamicin + i/v metronidazole<a 
href="footnote-113019.dita#bnf_113019"><sup>5</sup></a> or
   add i/v teicoplanin<a 
href="footnote-202621.dita#bnf_202621"><sup>2</sup></a></p>
 <p>Termination of pregnancy</p>
 <p>Single dose<a href="footnote-113022.dita#bnf_113022"><sup>1</sup></a> of 
oral metronidazole</p>

So essentially, I get footnote reference numbers 1, 2, 3 and 5. I'd like 
number 5 to come out as number 4 as I'd expect. Thank again, David, and 
whoever would like to jump in to give you a break. :)
