Hello,

I want to create a XSLT that only returns the top so many entries of data based on a date. What I want to do is create a top-ten list of most recently modified files in the XML. My XML looks like:

<Documents>
  <Document>
    <Name>Document</Name>
    .
    .
    <LastChangeDate>1/2/2004</LastChangeDate>

Basically, I want to retrieve the last ten documents with the most recent last change date. I have a process defined for modifying the XML with the new last change date; however, I'm not sure how to do this through XSLT.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian Mains

Hey,

For anybody who wanted to know, I figured it out; here are the two templates that are needed:

<xslt:template match="Documents">
  <xslt:apply-templates select="Document">
    <xslt:sort select="LastChangeDate" order="descending"/>
  </xslt:apply-templates>
</xslt:template>

<xslt:template match="Document">
  <xslt:if test="position() &lt;= 10">
    <a>
      <xslt:attribute name="href"><xslt:value-of select="Path"/></xslt:attribute>
      <xslt:value-of select="Name"/>
    </a><br/>
  </xslt:if>
</xslt:template>
