Can't you use <xsl:number> to get what you want? Maybe I didn't understand something about the problem you were solving.

The XSLs (by Jarno and by -- Americo) are brilliant..
I was trying to solve the problem, but could'nt come
up with the solution soon..
Though the issue about incrementing the variables has
been discussed a lot on this list, I feel if there is
a feature where some sort of variable incrmenting is
possible in XSLT, it will save lot of programming
hours producing a trivial thing as generating serial
nos. I am not suggesting to deviate from the viewpoint
that XSLT should be a functional language.
But if lets say we are allowed to declare a global variable and can increment it, it will make certain tasks quite easy(like generating serial nos). Since generating serial nos is a common requirement, IMHO providing this capability in XSLT will help the user community. Also if we can have looping constructs which can iterate over number ranges for e.g.
for (int i=0; i < n; i++) , it will facilitate processing loops in a diffrent way. Presently for-each loop iterate over *node sets*. I guess these things might be added to XSLT without deviating from the objective to keep XSLT as a functional language.
The XSLT 2.0 spec is in draft stage. If appropriate, these features can be thought to be added. Probably more knowledgeable persons on this list -- M. Kay, Dimitre, David Carlisle, Dave Pawson, Wendell, Jeni, Jarno, Americo.. can comment on the appropriateness of this idea ;)

Hi,
Also i have Isolated Problem Page from Actualoutput
which contains multiple pdf pages. This part iswhich
conditionaly separated from other pdf pages (
are
further grouped using Muenchian Method)
Could you integrage this approach to your stylesheets?
<?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html"/> <xsl:variable name="varRowLimit" select="15"/> <xsl:variable name="Student_Count" select="count(Students/Student)"/> <xsl:template match="Students"> <title></title> <table> <tbody> <xsl:apply-templates select="Student[1]"/> </tbody> </table> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="Student" name="Student"> <xsl:param name="counter" select="1"/> <tr> <td> <xsl:value-of select="$counter"/> </td> <td> <xsl:value-of select="Name"/> </td> <td> <xsl:value-of select="TOption"/> </td> </tr> <xsl:variable name="next" select="following-sibling::Student[1]"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="not($next)"> <tr> <td> <xsl:value-of select="$counter + 1"/> </td> <td> <xsl:text/>Total = <xsl:value-of select="$Student_Count"/> </td> <td></td> </tr> <xsl:call-template name="empty"> <xsl:with-param name="counter" select="$counter + 2"/> <xsl:with-param name="left" select="$varRowLimit - $Student_Count - 3"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="TOption = $next/TOption"> <xsl:apply-templates select="$next"> <xsl:with-param name="counter" select="$counter + 1"/> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:call-template name="empty"> <xsl:with-param name="counter" select="$counter + 1"/> </xsl:call-template> <xsl:apply-templates select="$next"> <xsl:with-param name="counter" select="$counter + 2"/> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="empty"> <xsl:param name="counter" select="0"/> <xsl:param name="left" select="1"/> <xsl:if test="$left"> <tr> <td> <xsl:value-of select="$counter"/> </td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <xsl:call-template name="empty"> <xsl:with-param name="counter" select="$counter + 1"/> <xsl:with-param name="left" select="$left - 1"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
