XML and XSL help needed

Hi I'm wondering about some XML and XSL stuff. Suppose I have the following XML file:

Code:

<xmlfile>

        <type1>

        </type1>



        <type2>

        </type2>



        <type2>

        </type2>



        <type2>

        </type2>



        <type3>

        </type3>

</xmlfile>

Each ot the "typeX" sections gets matched in an XSL file by:

Code:

<xsl:template match="type1">



<xsl:template match="type2">



<xsl:template match="type3">

and so on. My problem is that there are multiple <type2> blocks, and that <type2> generates a table. As a result I end up with three tables, where what I really want is one table with three line items. Any way of doing that?

Thanks...

I haven't had much practice with XSL yet but there must be a way of using just a simple <td> for each Type 2, if you really must use tables.

Personally I'd use <div> or <span> tags myself.

i TOTALLY agree with Roger K there
