Please try this...
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/RecordSet">
<html>
<head>
<title/>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Age</th>
</tr>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Record" />
</table>
Number of records: <xsl:value-of select="count(Record)" />
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Record">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Name" /></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Age" /></td>
</tr>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Variables in XSLT are immutable(cannot be changed) because XSLT is designed
to be a side-effect free language(its a functional language). Allowing
variables to change introduces side-effect..

Mukul
