I ran your stylesheet and it worked for me, but I had to close your entity tag and change your xpath from "Entity/department/employee" to "entity/department/employee". But I can't see anything that would cause it to work only for the first employees, unless you changed something when you posted to the list.
Also, a word of advice: xslt has a different programming "style" associated with it called functional programming, which is different from the usual procedural programming in languages such as cf. People coming from a procedural background are likely to be familiar with loops so they overuse <xsl:for-each> rather than <xsl:template>. It gets the job done, but you'll find that using <xsl:template> leads to more robust and more easily modifiable code, once you get used to that way of thinking. --- David Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Below is a simple xsl that I am using to format some > xml.
