I'm not going to do your school homework for you :-) My goal in showing you the XSLT was to show a different approach. If this is not homework :-), if this is code you will need to maintain over time, you need to learn how it works. > what ever output which u have given will not give me the exact format of > output that is required. That's because you did not give a general specification for your problem, and I'm not really willing to spend time guessing :-) The first thing to know when asking for help is that you need to say not, "given this single input I want his output" but rather, "this is what I am trying to accomplish, and here is my strategy". For example, say, "here are sample input and output. Whenever there's a group element directly inside another group element, I need the contents of the inner group element to be raised up to be children of the higher-level group element, and the (now empty) nested group element is to be deleted" Of course, once you specify the problem in this much detail, you will often find it's easy for you to solve it yourself, too! And until you give that much detail, people won't really be able to help you very much. For example, if your real goal is to learn Perl, that's fine, but say so, and then I'd give you a way to do this in Perl and explain that I'd probaby use XSLT instead... or if your goal is to integrate with a larger Perl system, for example, say that too. Otherwise you might as well say, "I need to cook some food, please help me" without mentioning if it's for a Royal Banquet or a quick snack or because the hot weather has made the meat smell bad :-) Best, Liam -- Liam Quin - XML Activity Lead, W3C, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ Pictures from old books: http://fromoldbooks.org/ Sometimes blog: http://www.barefootliam.org/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
