Hi,
you can do loops, if you use recursion:
<xsl:template name="loop">
<xsl:param name="x"/>
 
<xsl:if test="$x > 1">
<xsl:call-template name="loop">
<xsl:with-param name="x">
<xsl:value-of select="$x - 1"/>
</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
bye
Frank

->Hi,
->
->Here is a funny one : corresponding to an attribute level, I
->want to insert
->a certain number of spaces before the beggining of a line in
->HTML, i.e. :
->XML :
-><listing level="4">something coming from a screen</listing>
->
->HTML (in courier):
-> something coming from a screen
->
->Since I don't know any way of making a loop, and given the
->fact that spaces
->do not make it in HTML, my only guess till now was (beware,
->this is ugly) :
-><xsl:value-of
->select="substring(' &
->nbsp; ',
->1, @level+1)"/>
->
->Any more beautiful idea ? (this work almost, except that I
->get extra spaces
->sometime, if I have another markup at the beginning of the line)
