There's really not much point in telling us this. If you tell us exactly
what you coded and what error message you got, then we can help you
understand what you did wrong. If you only tell us roughly what you coded
and that Saxon didn't like it, then all we can do is to extend our
symphathy.

As Dimitre points out, you've got a simple grouping problem here and
xsl:for-each-group should sort it out very easily.
