Hi Kimber,
Thanks a lot for the clue you provided. I have downloaded 'dita4publishers'.
Would you please let me know the command line by which I can convert the
below structure.

Thanks
...JSR

Using XSLT 2 it's relatively easy. Using XSLT 1 it's a bit harder.

For an XSLT 2 solution, see the general map-driven processing in the DITA
for Publishers source tree:

http://dita4publishers.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/dita4publishers/trunk/tool
kit_plugins/net.sourceforge.dita4publishers.common.mapdriven/

It provides general XSLT functions and templates for operating on DITA maps
using XSLT.

There is a sample application in net.sf.dita4publishers.graphviz/ that shows
how to operate on a map to do something relatively simple.

If you were only concerned about this document example the code is trivial.
A more general DITA solution requires attention to more details, which the
code referenced above provides for.

Note that this code is intended to be used in the context of the DITA Open
Toolkit, which handles content reference resolution, filtering, and
map-to-map processing for you. But the code can be applied directly to maps
if those aspects of DITA are not a concern.

Cheers,

Eliot
