There, where you use the key() function, the Muenchian Method itself, add a filter, similar to the following:
<xsl:apply-templates select="book[@author='author2'][generate-id() = generate-id(key('books', concat(author, '::', type)))]"/>

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, however, i was wondering how could i group the data after the orginial xml has been filtered (without writing an intermediate file)?
in the previous example
...
<book>
<author>author1</author>
<name>x box</name>
<type>sc-fi</type>
</book>
<book>
<author>author2</author>
<name>elf story</name>
<type>adventure</type>
</book>
<book>
<author>author1</author>
<name>the return of Dr who</name>
<type>sc-fi</type>
</book>
<book>
<author>author2</author>
<name>something2</name>
<type>sc-fi</type>
</book>
...
what happen if you wish to filter some data out before grouping the item?
for instance <xsl:template match="book"> <xsl:if test="author='author2'"> <xsl:call-template select="test"/> </xsl:if> </xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="test"/> <!--start grouping the data-->
</xsl:template>
however, if i started to group at this stage (which i want to group it at this stage) using the mucheun method, it will group the unwanted data (the filtered out data) as well as the wanted data which could result to losing data, therefore i was wondering whether it is possible to do so, or do i need to look for another way of grouping them? any feed back would be a great assist.
Many thanks
Regards Kit
