Hi Guys, I have a problem when trying to do a recursive loop inside another. I'm trying to build a dymanic crossword. I do add a param/var to the end of an exiting varaible.

For example $allAnswer-Row1
I want to add 1 ($allAnswer-Row+1) on the 1st loop, 2 ($allAnswer-Row+2) on the second, etc.
I want to use this for line 1, 3 & 5 below, rather than making lines 10 to 16 etc.

-----------------------------
<xsl:comment>Crossword : Row 1 Output</xsl:comment>
<tr>
<xsl:call-template name="explodeString">
<xsl:with-param name="txt" select="$allAnswer-Row1"/>
<xsl:with-param name="rowNo" select="'1'"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</tr>


<xsl:comment>Crossword : Row 2 Output</xsl:comment>
<tr>
<xsl:call-template name="explodeString">
<xsl:with-param name="txt" select="$allAnswer-Row2"/>
<xsl:with-param name="rowNo" select="'2'"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</tr>
etc
etc
--------------------

Many thanks

Here is what I've done so far, using XSQL (with MySQL) & XSLT:
http://storm-cloud.cs.cse.dmu.ac.uk:...sql/index.xsql
-----------------

In XSLT 2.0 use

<xsl:for-each select="1 to 16">

and refer to the current value of the iterand either as "." or as "position()".

In XSLT 1.0 use

<xsl:for-each select="(//node())[position() &lt; 17]">

and refer to the iterand as "position()".

Or perhaps I've misunderstood the question - you weren't making yourself very clear.

Hi, yes sorry I wasn't very clear.

I'm not using nodes, I'm using xsl variables. (Adding values to end of variables).
-----------
1, <xsl:comment>Crossword : Row 1 Output</xsl:comment>
2, <tr>
3, <xsl:call-template name="explodeString">
4, <xsl:with-param name="txt" select="$allAnswer-Row1"/>
5, <xsl:with-param name="rowNo" select="'1'"/>
6, </xsl:call-template>
7, </tr>
------------
I want this to generate the rows in the table, I need to add a '1' to the end of $allAnswer-Row[ADD 1 HERE] on line 4. Then using recursive loops, then it comes around again, add 2 to the end of that variable.
