I'm almost done developing a site that uses XSLT 1.0. I've downloaded the Saxon 2.0 Processor, but I'm going to have to redevelop some pages for it to work in that. So in the meantime, I have this problem:
XML FILE:
<faqs>
<faq id="1">
<category>First Category</category>
<sub_category>Group A</sub_category>
<question>Question 1</question>
<answer>Answer 1</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="2">
<category>First Category</category>
<sub_category>Group A</sub_category>
<question>Question 2</question>
<answer>Answer 2</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="3">
<category>First Category</category>
<sub_category>Group A</sub_category>
<question>Question 3</question>
<answer>Answer 3</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="4">
<category>First Category</category>
<sub_category>Group B</sub_category>
<question>Question 4</question>
<answer>Answer 4</answer>
</faq>
<faq id="5">
<category>First Category</category>
<sub_category>Group B</sub_category>
<question>Question 5</question>
<answer>Answer 5</answer>
</faq>
</faqs>
XSLT FILE:
...
<xsl:param name="record_id" select="'First Category'" /><!-- Passed parameter from ASP.NET script-->
<xsl:for-each select="faqs/faq[category = $record_id]">
<xsl:sort select="sub_category" data-type="text" order="ascending" />
<xsl:sort select="question" data-type="text" order="ascending" />
<xsl:if test="sub_category != '' and position() = 1">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<strong><xsl:value-of select="sub_category" /></strong>
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:if>
<tr>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="question" />
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
...
ACTUAL HTML OUTPUT:
<table>
<tr>
<td>Group A</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 5</td>
</tr>
</table>
WANTED HTML OUTPUT:
<table>
<tr>
<td>Group A</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Group B</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Question 5</td>
</tr>
</table>
This setup does display the "sub_category" at the beginning of the entire list, but how can I get the out to be displayed how I'd like it to be, as I've noted above under "WANTED HTML OUTPUT"? Thanks for any help.
