Less than the amount of XSL you'd need.

With a programming language, you could have used loops.
- ndriscoll 1y agoWhat an odd comment to have as a sibling to mine from yesterday showing how to do it with two small templates in xsl (after a minor tweak to the xml): <xsl:template match="series"> <h2><xsl:value-of select="@name"/></h2> <table> <tr><th>Skylanders figure</th><th>Note</th></tr> <xsl:apply-templates select="/skylanders/figure[@series=current()/@id]"><xsl:sort select="name"/></xsl:apply-templates> </table> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="figure"> <tr class="element-{ @element }"> <td><xsl:value-of select="@name" /></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="@note" /></td> </tr> </xsl:template> No explicit loops necessary.
