Back for this rather old problem about stacked paged display xml nodes on three columns. The original question was raised up here: three records at once xml mobile pagination on xslt Thing is that here, xpath predicate to limit xml nodes display for being very glad of the way display was provided I totally forget about pagination mechanism. I mean there were a great need for a couple of js functions (at least) to be bound over the pagination links in order for these to work. But here is still another requirement (second one):
- through this xml file (which I'll show it here in a sec) there are some sub-records associated with the principal ones. And as one will display in a couple of pictures, by clicking on some small [+] sign those sub-records will expand, thus showing them accordingly. That [+] sign turned into [-] sign. And when clicked again over that [-] sign those sub-records will collapse, the displaying only showing but principal node records. The "pictures" are as follows:
|===========|---------------|-------------|------------|
| FNAME | Smith [+] | Ken [+] | Susan [+] |
|===========|---------------|-------------|------------|

- all sub-records collapsed; one could
notice that little [+] sign on the very
1'st line next over each and every name

- by clicking over either links (< - prev , > - next
<< - first or >> - last) the records displaying
will push backward or forward conesequently
(sub-records still collapsed ...)

Fig. 3 First Page with vertically sub-records expanded
- on the first page (Fig.1) by clicking over that
[+] sign on top of every table's column header
those corresponding sub-records (children stuff)
wil get expanded (but vertically !) and be shown as such
The xml file is this:

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:param name="pag" select="1"/>
<xsl:param name="frme" select="3"/>
<xsl:template match="/persns">
<xsl:variable name="start" select="($pag - 1) * $frme + 1"/>
<xsl:variable name="rec" select="prsn[position() ge $start and position() lt $start + $frme]"/>
<table border="1">
<xsl:for-each select="$rec[1]/*">
<xsl:variable name="i" select="position()"/>
<tr><th>
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
</th>
<xsl:for-each select="$rec">

<xsl:value-of select="*[$i]"/>
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
And the last part will be the js functions which should be bound over the pagination links/buttons for the whole process kicked off. So, the two requirements on brief :
- vertical expand/collapse of xml sub-records when clicked over those [+]/[-] signs
- pagination mechanism (through some js) which allows moving backwards / forwards Really hope I made myself clear enough for one to Really understand my needs. Thank you very much and please you guys help me with all these
