[xsl] predicate inside a for-each

Hi,



imagine the following scenario:



XML:
<table>
   <head>
       <row>row 1</row>
       <row>row 2</row>
   </head>
   <body>
       <field>field 1</field>
       <field>field 2</field>
       <field>field 3</field>
       <field>field 4</field>
   </body>
</table>

I would like to generate a XHTML table looking (a bit) like this:
row 1        field 1      field3
row 2        field 2      field4

However, I ran into a brick wall:

<xsl:template match="table">

   <table>

       <xsl:for-each select="head/row">

           <tr>

               <td><strong><xsl:value-of select="."/></strong></td>

               <xsl:for-each select="../../body/field[position() mod 
count(../../head/row) = ROWPOSITION]">

                   <td><xsl:value-of 
select="position()"/>-<xsl:value-of select="../../@row-count"/></td>

               </xsl:for-each>

           </tr>

       </xsl:for-each>

   </table>

</xsl:template>



ROWPOSITION needs to be the position of the row, which is processed by 
the outer for-each. However, I can't think of any XPath expression to 
get there..

Of course I could call another template and pass the row position as a 
parameter, but I'd like to avoid that..



Any suggestions??



Thanks,
Ben
