Help with transforming X number of elements...

Help with transforming X number of elements...

2003-04-15       - By John Nikolai


We have a list of X number of product elements which we want to display
in two HTML table columns. The client wishes to have an even
distribution of products in the first and second column. So if we have
4 product elements in the document they want 2 in one column and 2 in
the other. If we have 3 product elements, 2 will go in one column and 1
in the other, etc...

Currently we have 2 product types, papers and DVDs and each type will
have a separate table and columns. I'm  currently using Xalan to grab
each product type, creating an XML document, I then parse it using
Xerces to grab the data I need, do some math to see how many elements
are in the document and place the products in their appropriate columns.

So I have a working version but I'm wondering if Xalan can do this
translation? If so do you have some simple examples for which we can
start "fiddling" with?

Thank you for your help!
