Re: Position() with Following-Sibling

Hi Joris,

Thanks for your reply.  However, your solution didn't work for me. 
Here's the xsl code that's giving me trouble:

<xsl:for-each select="Item[position() mod 2=1]">
  <xsl:variable name="ItemID" select="ItemId"/>
  <xsl:variable name="ASIN" select="ASIN"/>
  <xsl:variable name="Title" select="Title"/>
  <xsl:variable name="Price" select="Price/FormattedPrice"/>
  <xsl:variable name="ItemTotal" select="ItemTotal/FormattedPrice"/>
  <xsl:variable name="Quantity" select="Quantity"/>
  <xsl:variable name="ItemName" select="position()"/>
  <tr>
   <td><a href="Details.aspx?asin={$ASIN}"><xsl:value-of 
select="$Title"/></a></td>
   <td class="price"><xsl:value-of select="$Price"/></td>
   <td class="price"><xsl:value-of select="$ItemTotal"/></td>
   <td><input type="text" name="Qyt.{$ItemName}" id="Qty" maxlength="3" 
value="{$Quantity}"/></td>
  </tr>
  <xsl:if test="following-sibling::Item[1]">
   <xsl:variable name="ItemID2" select="following-sibling::Item[1]/ItemId"/>
   <xsl:variable name="ASIN2" select="following-sibling::Item[1]/ASIN"/>
   <xsl:variable name="Title2" select="following-sibling::Item[1]/Title"/>
   <xsl:variable name="Price2" 
select="following-sibling::Item[1]/Price/FormattedPrice"/>
   <xsl:variable name="ItemTotal2" 
select="following-sibling::Item[1]/ItemTotal/FormattedPrice"/>
   <xsl:variable name="Quantity2" 
select="following-sibling::Item[1]/Quantity"/>
   <xsl:variable name="ItemName2" 
select="following-sibling::Item[1]/position()"/>
  <tr class="row">
   <td><a href="Details.aspx?asin={$ASIN2}"><xsl:value-of 
select="$Title2"/></a></td>
   <td class="price"><xsl:value-of select="$Price2"/></td>
   <td class="price"><xsl:value-of select="$ItemTotal2"/></td>
   <td><input type="text" name="Qty.{$ItemName2}" maxlength="3" 
value="{$Quantity2}"/></td>
  </tr>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>

Notice that I'm creating a table.  This table contains textboxes.  Thus 
the table is nested inside a html form.  Everything else works great, 
except naming each textbox.  I'm simply trying to give each textbox a 
unique name just using numbers.

Thanks,
Roshawn
