Hi Ben,
This is where it gets tricky i think i was able to achieve this
but i had a problem which even your stylesheet gives we need only that <emp>
element which is required the other one should be omited
means for a string "scott,john," the result should be
<ROOT>
<employee group="1">
<wing>Management</wing>
<emp>john</emp>
</employee>
<employee group="3">
<wing>Production</wing>
<emp>scot</emp>
</employee>
</ROOT>
