Message: [QUOTE="a_j_moran, post: 779428"] Given that you stated already that each command element must have at least one key associated with it the best approach might be to associate a template with the "command" element that also processes the first "key" child line - further "key" element processing should be done in a seperate template invoked with the appropriate predicate (this avoids the expense of position checking on each invocation of the key template). in sum: <xsl:template match="command"> <tr> <td>...cmd elements...</td> <td>...markup with ref to first key <xsl:value-of select="key[1]" /></td> </tr>  <xsl:apply-templates select="key[position() > 1]" /> <xsl:template> <xsl:template match="key"> <tr>  <td> </td>  <td><xsl:value-of select="..etc..." /></td> </tr> <xsl:template> hth ajm.
