dynamic HTML table generation

[Ireney Berezniak <iberezniak at usa dot net>]

Hi,

I have a problem and so far I have been unsuccessful finding a solution.  Any
help you guys could provide would be greatly appreciated.

I need to format and create an HTML result set table dynamically. 
For example, in one instance I have a resultset in XML that contains 10
records.  I need to have an XSL file which generates a table with 2 rows and 5
columns.  In another instance, I might have a resultset that contains 20
records, and I need to present it in a 5 row by 4 column table using the same
XSL file. I really want to do this dynamically. I can pass the desired row and
column count into XSLT file so I know how many rows and columns I need to
create, but how do I do the looping to achieve this?

Thanks!

xml sample:
<rs:data>
	<z:row Product_Id="98652"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="98682"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="98718"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="104512"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="106564"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="174272"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="175242"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="191765"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="194131"/>
	<z:row Product_Id="194132"/>
</rs:data>

desired HTML table to be generated dynamically:
<TABLE>
	<TR>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
	</TR>
	<TR>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
	</TR>
</TABLE>

or (depending on the rows/columns required)

<TABLE>
	<TR>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
	</TR>
	<TR>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
	</TR>
	<TR>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
	</TR>
	<TR>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
	</TR>
	<TR>
		<TD></TD>
		<TD></TD>
	</TR>
</TABLE>
