thank you for your help. it works great for me.
just curious,
what do i have to do when i want to use the muench method or at least
xsl:keys on a different document. i thought i would need two for-eachs
and the xsl:key just has to be defined in the "scope" of the different
document.
is it that way that with the first for-each on the different document i
get into the right scope and with the second i create my index with
xsl:key. could this problem be solved via muench method. i am just
asking because obviously i don't understand it completely.
thank you again.
