transposing a table

["Pollington, Lee (ELSLON)" <lee dot pollington at biomednet dot com>]

Hi, we've been think about the best way to transpose a table (turn it by
90degs). It has an equal number of columns per row. I've come up with the
solution below. Does anyone have a better one or ideas for improving this
one?

<xsl:template match="/">
  <root>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="/root/row[1]/col" mode="row"/>
  </root>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="col" mode="row">
  <row>						
    <xsl:variable name="pos" select="position()"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="/root/row/col[$pos]" mode="col"/>
  </row>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="col" mode="col">
  <col><xsl:value-of select="."/></col>
</xsl:template>
