Hi,
I have the following format but am having trouble trying to group items (in html) under one common category so that it isnt repeated for every item but can act as a title:
<rss version="0.92">
- <channel>
- <item>
<title>title here</title>
<category>Top Stories</category>
<link>http</link>
<description>text is heredescription>
</item>
</channel>
<item>
<title>title here</title>
<category>top stories</category>
<link>http</link>
<description>text is heredescription>
</item>
</channel>
<item>
<title>title here</title>
<category>Stories today</category>
<link>http</link>
<description>text is heredescription>
</item>
</channel>
<item>
<title>title here</title>
<category>Stories today</category>
<link>http</link>
<description>text is heredescription>
</item>
</channel>
</rss>

e.g. the final look i wanted to create was:
<h1>top stories </h1>
ITEM1 <xsl:value-of select="description">
ITEM2 <xsl:value-of select="description">
<h1>stories today</h1>
ITEM3 <xsl:value-of select="description">
ITEM4 <xsl:value-of select="description">

but wasn't sure whetehr i should use count or for-each fucntion to gather common category title for several items.....
