RE: [xsl] Xpath - count preceding-siblings matching some condition

This works great in my test stylesheet.  However, when I use this in my
real stylesheet, I end up with 1 group, so all rows have a row-nbr=1.

The only difference in my real stylesheet is how I build $tmp-table.
Instead of selecting from a static node tree, it is built in memory with
the <xsl:variable name="tmp-table" as="element()+">
  <!-- build the data -->
</xsl:variable>

I've tried writing out the data instead of putting it in a variable, and
then using that output as input for the test stylesheet and it works!?!

Is there something different about holding the temporary tree in memory
to process it, as opposed to selecting from a static file?  When I view
the $tmp-table variables in the debugger, my node-sets look exactly the
same in both real and test stylesheets.

I'm going cross-eyed - any suggestions?

Thanks!
Angela

How about:

<table>
  <xsl:for-each-group select="//data/a" group-starting-with="a[@col-nbr
lt preceding-sibling::a[1]/@col-nbr]" >
    <xsl:variable name="row" select="position()" />
    <xsl:for-each select="current-group()" >
      <b col-nbr="{@col-nbr}" row-nbr="{$row}" />
    </xsl:for-each>
 </xsl:for-each-group>
</table>

Brad.
