Re: [xsl] Need help skipping a child element

Thanks for the quick reply Martin.

Maybe I should have included a snippet of my XSL.

I'm doing the following...

<fo:table-row keep-together.within-column="always">
 <xsl:for-each select="Cell">
  <xsl:call-template name="DataCell"/>
 </xsl:for-each>
</fo:table-row>

<xsl:template name="DataCell">
 <xsl:choose>
  <xsl:when test="@Status='Panic'">
   <fo:table-cell color="red" background-color="white" border="1pt solid
black" wrap-option="wrap" overflow="hidden">
    <fo:block font-size="10pt" padding="1mm" margin-left=".25mm"
overflow="hidden" language="ru" hyphenate="true">
     <xsl:value-of select="."/>
    </fo:block>
   </fo:table-cell>
  </xsl:when>
  <xsl:otherwise>
   <fo:table-cell color="black" background-color="white" border="1pt solid
black" wrap-option="wrap" overflow="hidden">
    <fo:block font-size="10pt" padding="1mm" margin-left=".25mm"
overflow="hidden" language="ru" hyphenate="true">
     <xsl:value-of select="."/>
    </fo:block>
   </fo:table-cell>
  </xsl:otherwise>
 </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

I tried doing...

<xsl:for-each select="Cell[position() = (1,2,3,6,7)]">

but that doesn't work.
