[Jamie Wang]

Hi, I am new to XSLT and have a question on how to dynamically generate
columns in XSL style sheet that can be applied generic xml files that
has the same document structure but with different number of columns and
column names. The XML file is shown below. In this case, the number of
columns is 3 and column names are the elements' name (e.g., COUNTRY_ID,
COUNTRY_NAME and REGION_ID.  Thanks in advance for your assistance.
