| You are good Jeni.
|
| Many many thanks.
| I was so focussed on getting Steve's magic to work,
| I failed to step back and think of another approach.
...and remember that the new XSLT 2.0 Grouping functionality
will be the beginning of the end of useful life of the Muenchian
Method, since it handles virtually any kind of grouping you
might want to accomplish with a much simpler syntax.
I'd encourage folks to download Saxon 7.0, and try out
the XSLT 2.0 grouping functionality in parallel to the XSLT 1.0-based
solution you might need to get working today to better give the
Working Group feedback on whether they've hit the usability
nail on the head or whether some minor tweaks are needed.
