Hi All,The fact that your output shows two XML declarations suggests that there is something wrong with the way you are running the transformation or displaying the results. There's no way the XSLT code you have shown will produce two separate result documents, each with its own XML declaration.
I am having difficulty get the following stylesheet to transform unique set of data once:

The following output generated duplicated set of identical transformed data when using<xsl:for-each>:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <employee> <first_name>John</first_name> <surname>smith</surname> <sex>M</sex> <first_name>Kelly</first_name> <surname>Jones</surname> <sex>F</sex> </employee>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <employee> <first_name>John</first_name> <surname>smith</surname> <sex>M</sex> <first_name>Kelly</first_name> <surname>Jones</surname> <sex>F</sex> </employee>
I tried the following changes after suspecting that the cause was from the <xsl:for-each> statement:
1<xsl:template match="/"> 2<xsl:apply-templates select="document('E:/employee.xml')/ns:html"/> 3</xsl:template> 4 5<xsl:template match="ns:html"> 6<employee> 7<xsl:variable name="employee_data" select="ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:table[@class='sresults']/ns:tr/ns:td/ns:a"/>
8<xsl:apply-templates select="$employee_data"/> 9<first_name><xsl:value-of select="substring-before(@title,',')"/></first_name> 10<surname><xsl:value-of select="@href"/></surname> 11<sex><xsl:value-of select="@gender"/></sex> 12</employee> 13</xsl:template>
Below is the output without using<xsl:for-each>:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <employee> John Kelly <firstname /> <surname /> <sex/>> </employee>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <employee> John Kelly <firstname /> <surname /> <sex/>> </employee>
Any ideas on what is causing the duplications and why is the second stylesheet picking up the firstnames of 2 separate xml documents in the wrong place?
The desire output is just a single entry of each record such as the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <employee> <first_name>John</first_name> <surname>smith</surname> <sex>M</sex> <first_name>Kelly</first_name> <surname>Jones</surname> <sex>F</sex> </employee>
Thanks a lot,
Jack
