Tom,

It's not clear what how you want to differentiate between when and
otherwise, so my answer may be way off; however, if you want to
differentiate at the cell (<td>) level, then try with the <tr> tags outside
the test:

        <tr>
                <xsl:when test="position() mod 2">
                        <td>
                                <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
                        </td>
                </xsl:when>
                <xsl:otherwise>
                        <td>
                                <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
                        </td>
                </xsl:otherwise>
        </tr>

HTH,

Hey,

  I've done some googling and I cant find the answer to this.

  I basically want to do:

<xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="position() mod 2">
                <tr>
                        <td>
                                <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
                        </td>
        </xsl:when>
        <xsl:otherwise>
                        <td>
                                <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
                        </td>
                </tr>
        </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>


So basically there will be two columns of @name printed.  The problem with
this setup is that the <tr> and </td> make the whole thing
malformed/invalid due to the broken nesting.  Is there a way to get around
this, or maybe a more "proper" way of achieving the same end?

-Tom
