Hi!

How can I produce X number of elements in XSLT, where X is defined in an
attribute of an element in the source XML file?

For example (this isn't rally what I'm doing), I have this in the XML:

<movie name="Alien" rating="3"/>

And I'd like to produce as many stars as in the rating, like:

<div>
   <img src="star.gif" alt=""/>
   <img src="star.gif" alt=""/>
   <img src="star.gif" alt=""/>
</div>

I suppose I can't do this with the for-each-construct. Please help, there
has to be a way for doing this! :)
If someone knows how to do this with Java and Xalan extension elements, it
helps too. I just don't see how I could do this, because you can't actually
"move" backwards in XSLT via Java extensions. If you have a solution, please
help.

Kind regards,
Ilkka Hartikainen
