Woops, correction to 2nd "IF the offset were" result below:  should result
in "GRAPE", corrected with [GRAPE] below.

I need to offset a sibling match for an offset of X. Example:

<elements>
<element item="1">APPLE</element>
<element item="2">ORANGE</element>
<element item="3">GRAPE</element>
<element item="4">WATERMELON</element>
<element item="5">CRANBERRY</element>
</elements>

If the offset were 0, then the result would be "APPLE", if the offse were 2,
then the result would be "ORANGE" -correction- [GRAPE].

Well, corrected here.

The template is always applied in order of the item, but the look up is
based on this offset value.

So, the big challenge: if the current item was 5 and the offset was 2, then
the result would be "ORANGE".

What about the above. Shouldn't it be "GRAPE" as well?

I am not sure whether I have understood it clearly, but what about
using the following :-

<xsl:value-of select="/elements/element[@item = ($offset+1)]" />

Cheers.

Arun
