    <p>I must be missing some fundamental concept of processing an XML document. Here is my source XML:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?&gt; &lt;Root&gt; &lt;Element&gt;visitorNameAlt&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;visitorScore&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;visitorTimeouts&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;Blank&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;homeNameAlt&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;homeScore&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;homeTimeouts&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;Blank&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;period&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;optionalText&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;flag&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;Blank&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;scoreLogo&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;Element&gt;sponsorLogo&lt;/Element&gt; &lt;/Root&gt; </code></pre> <p>And my XSL stylesheet:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?&gt; &lt;xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"&gt; &lt;xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" indent="yes"/&gt; &lt;xsl:template match="/"&gt; &lt;xsl:for-each select="/Root"&gt; &lt;xsl:value-of select="position()"/&gt; &lt;xsl:value-of select="Element"/&gt; &lt;/xsl:for-each&gt; &lt;/xsl:template&gt; &lt;/xsl:stylesheet&gt; </code></pre> <p>All I want is to pluck the "Element" names from the source XML doc with their relative position in front.</p> <p>My output is just "1" followed by the first element and nothing more.</p> <p>I am new to XSLT, but have processed other documents successfully with for-each.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> <p>Bill</p>

    1. CO"for each Root" means exactly what it says - process each Root once. There's only one Root, so I can't see how you imagine the body of the for-each will be executed more than once.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
