Hello All,

I am an absolute newbee to XSLT and have been cracking my head trying to achieve the following:

Sample XML file:

<date>
<ed date1="01/01/2007" id="1" />
<ed date1="01/01/2008" id="2" />
<ed date1="01/01/2008" id="3" />
<ed date1="01/01/2005" id="4" />
<ed date1="01/01/2008" id="5" />
<ed date1="01/01/2009" id="6" />
</date>

Now I want a numbered output as follows:

0. 01/01/2005,4
1. 01/01/2007,1
2. 01/01/2008,2
2. 01/01/2008,3
2. 01/01/2008,5
3. 01/01/2009,6

i.e I want a numbered o/p grouped by date1 as shown above. Help!
