Hi Kaarle, Can you please explain the XML structure? How does a <notice> tag relate to the previous and next <notice> tag? Is there some grouping? In one <notice> tag, you have'nt mentioned tag="NAME" - <notice> <name> <givenname>Lena</givenname> <surname>Karamazina</surname> </name> </notice> Regards, Mukul --- Kaarle Kaila <kaarle.kaila@xxxxxx> wrote: > My XML file contains data like this: > > <person sex="F"> > <name> > <givenname>Lena</givenname> > <surname>Karamazina</surname> > </name> > > <notices> > <notice tag="NAME"> > <name> > <givenname>Lena</givenname> > <surname>Koski</surname> > </name> > </notice> > > <notice tag="BIRT"> > <date>1944</date> > <place>Tyrvdd</place> > </notice> > <notice> > <name> > <givenname>Lena</givenname> > <surname>Karamazina</surname> > </name> > </notice> > > <notice tag="NAME"> > <name> > <givenname>Lena-Lisa</givenname> > <surname>Karamazina</surname> > </name> > </notice> > </notices> > </person> > -------------------------------- > I want to print the names after each other but if > teh givenname is same as > previous one then I want to print only the surname. > > The lower part of this xsl section is OK to compare > the name in the person > but how should I compare with the givenname of the > previous sibling in > notice element with tag="NAME". > > Any advice would be appreciated.
